Application

Application Comment Organism
analysis comparison of commercially available kits used for the simultaneous detection of coliforms and Escherichia coli from water. Membrane lactose glucuronide agar, Colilert-18, MI agar, Colitag and Chromocult agar to detect beta-D-glucuronidase activity are tested with over 1000 isolates of Escherichia coli recovered from naturally contaminated water samples. Four of the media give very similar results but membrane lactose glucuronide agar fails to detect glucuronidase activity in 15.6% of the cultures tested Escherichia coli
