Product Overview
Phenol Red Lactose HiVeg® Broth is a specialized laboratory medium designed for the cultivation and differentiation of enteric bacteria. It is formulated with a blend of nutrients that support the growth of microorganisms while providing a clear indication of their metabolic activities. The broth contains lactose as the primary carbohydrate source, which allows for the differentiation of lactose-fermenting and non-fermenting bacteria. Phenol Red, a pH indicator, changes color in response to the acidity produced by lactose fermentation, providing a visual cue for the presence of specific bacterial species. This broth is ideal for use in microbiology labs, research institutions, and educational settings. Its reliable performance and ease of use make it a valuable tool for microbiological studies and diagnostics.
