Enterococcus Confirmatory HiVeg™ agar is used for the detection of Enterococci in water supplies, swimming pools, sewage etc. Production of acid and turbidity in an azide presumptive broth when incubated at 45°C is considered positive presumptive evidence for the presence of Enterococci, which is confirmed by inoculating on Confirmatory agar (MV392). This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE risks associated with animal peptones. Application: For Laboratory Chemicals, Analytical Purpose, Biochemical Analysis Appearance of Powder: Yellow colored, may have slightly greenish tinge, homogeneous, free flowing powder Gelling: Firm, comparable with 1.5% Agar gel of MV392 Color and Clarity: Yellow colored, slightly opalescent gel of MV392 / clear solution of MV394 and MV419 forms in petri plates / tubes which acquires greenish tinge at the surface on standing Reaction: Reaction of 3.04% w/v of MV392 or 8.04% w/v of MV394 aqueous solution is pH 8.0 ± 0.2 at 25°C. Reaction of 1.54% w/v of MV419 aqueous solution is pH 8.4 ± 0.2 at 25 deg C
