Product Description
Endo Agar is a specialized granulated medium designed for the selective isolation and differentiation of coliform bacteria, particularly Escherichia coli and Enterobacter species. Widely used in microbiology labs, this agar contains sodium sulfite and basic fuchsin, which inhibit Gram-positive bacteria while allowing coliforms to grow with distinct metallic sheen colonies.
Whether you’re a student, researcher, or educator, this 500g pack from Himedia ensures consistent results for water testing, food safety analysis, and clinical diagnostics. The granulated form dissolves easily, saving preparation time while maintaining high purity standards.
