Esculin Agar, 500G
Esculin agar is recommended for demonstrating esculin hydrolysis by various microorganisms. This medium is recommended for the cultivation and differentiation of bacteria based on their ability to hydrolyze esculin and produce H2S.
Esculin agar is recommended for demonstrating esculin hydrolysis by various microorganisms. This medium is recommended for the cultivation and differentiation of bacteria based on their ability to hydrolyze esculin and produce H2S. The unhydrolyzed esculin can be detected using long wave UV light at 360 nm since they will remain unchanged and fluorescence under UV light. Hydrolysed esculin will not fluoresce and medium turns black. Application: For Laboratory Chemicals, Analytical Purpose, Biochemical Analysis Appearance: Cream to yellow homogeneous free flowing powder Gelling: Firm, comparable with 1.5% Agar gel Color and Clarity of prepared medium: Amber colored, clear to slightly opalescent gel forms in tubes as slants Reaction: Reation of 4.15% w/v aqueous solution at 25 deg C. pH : 7.3±0.2
