EC Broth (1X) 10ML (CAT#: STEM-CC-4369-LC)

EC Broth is a selective medium designed to detect coliform bacteria at 35°C and specifically identify Escherichia coli at higher temperatures (44.5°C or 45.5°C). It contains lactose as a fermentable carbohydrate to support coliform growth while incorporating bile salts to inhibit Gram-positive bacteria, including bacilli and fecal streptococci, ensuring selective isolation of target organisms.
