Description

Modified Salt HiVeg™ Agar Base for Staphylococci is recommended for selective isolation and cultivation of Staphylococci.Sodium chloride at a concentration of 6.5% makes the medium highly selective as majority of the contaminating organisms are inhibited by the high salt concentration, but Staphylococci are able to tolerate the high sodium chloride concentration. This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risk.
