Q

inhibit the growth of gram-positive bacteria including lactose fermenting
Clostridia

A

Oxbile and brilliant green

23
Q

Production of gas lactose fermentation is detected by incorporating inverted Durham’s tube,
indicates a positive evidence of faecal coliforms

A

Total Coliform Test: Brilliant Green Lactose Broth

24
Q
  • Tryptose provides the nitrogen, carbon compounds, vitamins and amino acids.
  • Lactose is the fermentable sugar
  • Sodium lauryl sulphate inhibits organisms other than coliforms
  • Bile salts inhibit gram-positive bacteria especially bacilli and faecal Streptococci
  • Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance of the medium.
  • Potassium phosphates control the pH
  • A positive indole test in a broth tube showing gas production at 44°C indicates the presence of
    Escherichia coli
A

Total Coliform Test: Laryl Tryptose Broth (LTB)

25
Q
  • Tryptose or Casein provides essential growth nutrients
  • Bile salts inhibit gram-positive bacteria especially bacilli and faecal Streptococci.
