Total Genes Chromogenic Medium: Fast and Accurate Detection of Total Bacterial Count

Total Genes Chromogenic Medium is the ideal solution for rapid and precise detection of total bacterial counts in food, water, and environmental samples. Designed for efficiency, this medium allows cultures to develop in just 24 hours, with bacterial colonies turning red for easy identification. Whether you work in a laboratory or focus on food safety quality control, this medium provides reliable results that meet high standards.

Key Features and Benefits

Efficient Bacterial Detection

Total Genes Chromogenic Medium features a unique formulation that includes special nutrients and a chromogenic reagent. These components create optimal growth conditions for bacteria. When cultured, typical colonies appear in bright red, making it easy to spot different bacterial populations. The final pH of 7.0±0.1 at 25°C ensures accurate microbial growth.

Simple Preparation and Usage

Preparing the medium is straightforward. Suspend 23.5g of Total Genes Chromogenic Medium in 1L of distilled water. Autoclave at 121°C for 15 minutes. After cooling to 45-50°C, you can use either the pouring or streaking method to inoculate your samples. For the pouring method, transfer 1mL of your prepared sample into a sterile petri dish and add 15mL of the chromogenic medium. Mix thoroughly before culturing.

Quality Control and Reliability

Quality control is crucial in any lab. The dehydrated powder medium appears homogeneous and milky white. The prepared medium is colorless and solid, allowing clear visualization of bacterial colonies. Microbial sensitivity tests confirm your results, as colonies incubated at 36 ± 1°C consistently yield typical features, with red to light red colonies indicating target bacteria.

Storage and Handling

To maintain the integrity of Total Genes Chromogenic Medium, store the powder in a dark, dry place at temperatures between 2-8°C. Avoid exposure to direct light, which can compromise the medium’s effectiveness. Use prepared plates immediately after preparation for accurate results.

Conclusion

For those seeking to enhance microbiological testing, Total Genes Chromogenic is essential. Its fast detection methods, simple preparation process, and reliable quality control make it invaluable for laboratories focused on food safety, water quality monitoring, and environmental assessments. Experience the ease and reliability of this medium today. Ensure your bacterial detection methods are efficient and effective.
