Application

Chromocult^® Coliform Agar is used for the simultaneous detection of coliform bacteria and E. coli in drinking water, disinfected pool water, finished water from treatment plants and processed food samples.

General description

Chromocult^® Coliform Agar is a granulated, less selective, and differential chromogenic culture medium intended for microbiological analysis of food and water. This medium saves time by enabling the simultaneous detection, differentiation, and enumeration of E. coli and coliforms from drinking water and processed food matrices within 24 hours. This agar is the only chromogenic culture medium which was used for validation to prepare the new ISO 9308-1 (2014) version. The medium contains Tergitol^™ 7 as an inhibitor of Gram-positive bacteria without any impact on the growth of the targeted coliforms/ E. coli. Chromocult^® Coliform Agar is, therefore, the ideal medium for the detection of coliforms/ E. coli in drinking water and processed foods. It facilitates and speeds up your processes.
