VRBD-NPS

VRBD-NPS are used for the determination of enteric bacteria from water, food and other samples. One characteristic for enteric bacteria is the formation of acids from dextrose, which is indicated by red colonies due to the neutral red indicator. Growth of accompanying microorganisms is inhibited by crystal violet and bile salts. Note: Growth on this medium can only be taken as hint. For confirmation further tests need to be performed. The medium is manufactured and quality tested in compliance with ISO 11133:2014 standard.
