Chromogenic culture media for the detection of shiga toxin producing E.coli O157:H7 (STEC).
E. coli O157:H7 Chromogenic Agar Base is used for the detection of E. coli O157:H7. Chromogenic mixture allows to easily detect the presence of E. coli O157:H7 by colony coloration that grows pale pink. Potassium tellurite and cefixime are highly selective for E. coli O157:H7 and inhibit most contaminating bacteria including other E. coli strains and coliforms.
