Product Description
Diagnostic Stuart’s Urea Broth Base is a specialized medium designed for the detection of urea hydrolysis in microbiological samples. This high-quality broth base is widely used in clinical and research laboratories to identify urease-positive microorganisms, such as Proteus species and other enteric bacteria. The medium contains urea as the primary substrate, along with essential nutrients to support bacterial growth.
When urease-producing bacteria metabolize urea, ammonia is released, leading to an alkaline pH shift. This change is visually indicated by the phenol red pH indicator, which turns from yellow to pink or red. The diagnostic-grade formulation ensures reliable and consistent results, making it an essential tool for microbial identification and biochemical testing.
Whether you’re a student, researcher, or educator, this urea broth base provides a cost-effective solution for routine microbiology experiments. Its easy-to-prepare powder form allows for quick reconstitution, saving valuable lab time. For those looking to buy urea broth base online, eqipped offers a seamless purchasing experience with fast delivery across India.
