    Description

    Oxoid™ MacConkey Agar is a selective and differential culture medium designed for the isolation and differentiation of Gram-negative enteric bacteria based on lactose fermentation. It is widely used in clinical, food, and environmental microbiology to detect and enumerate coliform organisms.

    Supplied in a 2.5kg dehydrated powder format, this medium provides reliable performance and is suitable for high-throughput laboratory applications. The formulation includes bile salts and crystal violet to inhibit Gram-positive organisms, while lactose and neutral red enable differentiation of lactose fermenters, which produce pink colonies, from non-fermenters, which remain colorless.

    Key Features:

    • Form: Dehydrated powder
    • Weight: 2.5kg
    • Application: Isolation and differentiation of Gram-negative enteric bacteria in clinical, food, and environmental samples
    • Composition: Peptones, lactose, bile salts, sodium chloride, neutral red, crystal violet, agar
    • Function: Selective inhibition of Gram-positive bacteria; differentiation based on lactose fermentation
    • Preparation: Dissolve in distilled water and sterilize as per protocol
