Endo DEV agar is a selective agar recommended for the isolation and differentiation of Escherichia coli in the bacteriological analysis of water. Lactose is the fermentable carbohydrate. Sodium sulphite and basic fuchsin make this medium selective by suppressing gram-positive organisms. Coliforms produce pink colonies on fermenting lactose while lactose non-fermenters produce colorless colonies on the medium. with Escherichia coli, this reaction is very pronounced as the fuchsin crystallizes, exhibiting a permanent greenish metallic luster (fuchsin luster) to the colonies. This medium is as per German regulations for testing of water. Application: For Laboratory Chemicals, Analytical Purpose, Biochemical Analysis for Invitro Diagnostic Use Appearance: Light pink to purple homogeneous free flowing powder Gelling: Firm, comparable with 2.0% Agar gel Color and Clarity of prepared medium: Orangish pink colored, clear to slightly opalescent gel with fine precipitate forms in Petri plates Reaction: Reaction of 5.8% w/v aqueous solution at 25 deg C. pH : 7.4±0.2
