Product Description
Tetrathionate HiVeg Broth Base, Hajna (MV327) is a specialized medium designed for the selective enrichment of Salmonella species from food, water, and environmental samples. This vegetarian formulation replaces animal-derived components, making it suitable for ethical and regulatory compliance in microbiological testing.
The broth base contains sodium thiosulfate and iodine, which form tetrathionate—a key inhibitor of Gram-positive bacteria and coliforms while allowing Salmonella to thrive. Its buffered composition ensures optimal pH for recovery, even in samples with varying microbial loads.
Ideal for research labs, quality control units, and educational institutions, this medium simplifies Salmonella detection workflows. Whether you’re testing dairy products, poultry, or wastewater, Tetrathionate HiVeg Broth Base delivers reliable results when used as part of standard protocols like ISO 6579 or FDA BAM.
