Description

CPC HiVeg™ Agar Base is recommended for the cultivation and identification of Vibrio species from food samples. It is designed to differentiate Vibrio vulnificus from other Vibrios. Vibrio cholerae strains except V. cholerae 01-classical biotype grow on CPC Agar while most Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains do not grow on CPC Agar. This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risk.
