Product Description
HiCrome® Chromogenic Coliform HiCynth® Agar is a specialized medium designed for the rapid and reliable detection of coliform bacteria. This agar is widely used in microbiology labs, water testing facilities, and food safety inspections due to its ability to differentiate between coliforms and other bacteria through chromogenic reactions.
The medium contains selective agents that inhibit the growth of non-coliform bacteria while allowing coliforms to thrive. The chromogenic substrate in the agar produces distinct colored colonies, making it easier to identify and count coliforms accurately. This is particularly useful in environmental monitoring, water quality testing, and food safety compliance.
Whether you’re a student conducting microbiology experiments or a researcher analyzing water samples, this agar provides clear and consistent results. Its ease of use and high sensitivity make it a preferred choice for coliform testing in various applications.
