Description
Milk Agar w/Cetrimide is formulated as recommended by the BIS for detection and enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from water. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the only species of Pseudomonas or gram-negative rod known to excrete pyocyanin and this ability of pigment production is exploited by the medium to identify the target strains. P. aeruginosa hydrolyses casein and produces a yellow to green diffusible pigment which helps in its identification.
