Product Description
HiDip™ Mac-CLED-Sab Medium is a specialized microbial medium designed for the detection and differentiation of coliform bacteria and Escherichia coli. This ready-to-use medium from Himedia combines the selectivity of MacConkey agar with the chromogenic properties of CLED (Cystine Lactose Electrolyte Deficient) agar, making it highly effective for water, food, and environmental testing.
The medium contains specific indicators that allow for easy identification of target organisms. Coliforms produce pink to red colonies, while E. coli appears as blue colonies due to the presence of chromogenic substrates. This dual functionality simplifies microbial analysis, reducing the need for additional confirmatory tests.
Each pack contains 10 pre-sterilized tubes, ensuring convenience and consistency in laboratory workflows. The medium is formulated to meet international standards for microbial testing, making it a trusted choice for researchers, educators, and quality control professionals.
For accurate results, follow standard microbiological procedures. Store the medium at recommended temperatures and use within the specified shelf life. eqipped ensures that you receive authentic Himedia products with reliable performance for your lab needs.
