M-Endo HiVeg™ agar LES is recommended for enumeration of coliforms in water using a two step membrane filtration technique, wherein Lauryl Sulphate broth (M080) is used as the primary enrichment medium. This medium is recommended by APHA for testing coliforms in drinking and in bottled water. Presumptive coliform bacteria will form red colonies with metallic sheen after an incubation at 35-37°C for 24 hours. This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risk. Application: For Laboratory Chemicals, Analytical Purpose, Biochemical Analysis Appearance of powder: Light purple to purple colored, homogeneous, free flowing powder Gelling: Firm, comparable with 1.5% Agar gel Color and Clarity: Red colored, slightly opalescent gel forms in petri plates Reaction: Reaction of 5.1% w/v aqueous solution with 2% v/v ethanol is pH 7.2 ± 0.2 at 25 deg C
