Product Description
Violet Red Bile Agar (VRBA) is a specialized medium used in microbiology for the selective isolation and differentiation of coliform bacteria, particularly Escherichia coli (E. coli). This medium is widely used in water quality testing, food safety, and clinical laboratories to detect and enumerate coliforms, which are indicators of fecal contamination.
VRBA contains various components that create a selective environment for coliforms. The violet red dye and bile salts inhibit the growth of non-coliform bacteria, while the lactose in the medium allows coliforms to ferment, producing acid and gas. This fermentation results in the formation of red colonies with a metallic sheen, making it easy to identify coliforms.
At eqipped, we offer high-quality Violet Red Bile Agar in a 500 gm pack size, ensuring you have enough supply for your laboratory needs. Our VRBA is manufactured by Himedia, a trusted name in the industry known for its reliable and consistent products.
