Product Description
MUG MacConkey HiVeg Agar is a specialized medium designed for the selective isolation and differentiation of gram-negative bacteria, particularly enteric pathogens. This Himedia product is widely used in microbiology labs, research facilities, and educational institutions for its reliability in identifying lactose-fermenting and non-lactose-fermenting bacteria.
The agar contains bile salts and crystal violet, which inhibit the growth of gram-positive bacteria, while the inclusion of MUG (4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide) allows for the detection of β-glucuronidase activity. This makes it an essential tool for identifying E. coli and other coliforms in water, food, and clinical samples.
Whether you’re a student conducting experiments or a researcher working on bacterial studies, this agar provides consistent results. The 500 gm pack size ensures you have an ample supply for multiple tests, making it a cost-effective choice for labs with frequent testing needs.
