Product Description
L-Ornithine Decarboxylase Broth is a specialized medium designed for the detection of ornithine decarboxylase activity in microorganisms. This broth adheres to the ISO/TS 22964:2017 standard, ensuring reliable and consistent results in microbiological testing. It is widely used in research labs, educational institutions, and diagnostic centers to identify bacterial species capable of decarboxylating ornithine.
The broth contains L-ornithine as the primary substrate, along with essential nutrients and a pH indicator. When microorganisms decarboxylate ornithine, the pH of the medium changes, producing a visible color shift. This makes it an invaluable tool for differential testing in microbiology.
Whether you’re a student conducting experiments or a researcher validating bacterial strains, this broth provides the precision you need. Its ease of preparation and clear results make it a staple in microbiology labs across India.
