Oxoid™ Alkaline Saline Peptone Water (ISO) (500g) is a selective enrichment medium formulated for the recovery of Vibrio species from food and environmental samples. With a high pH and elevated salt concentration, this medium creates an optimal environment for the growth of Vibrio spp., while inhibiting the growth of competing flora. It is manufactured in accordance with ISO standards, supporting reliable and consistent microbiological testing.

Key Features:

• Form: Dehydrated powder
• Weight: 500g
• Application: Selective enrichment of Vibrio spp. from food and environmental samples, as per ISO standards
• Composition: Peptone base enriched with sodium chloride and adjusted to an alkaline pH to favour Vibrio growth and suppress non-halophilic organisms
• Preparation: Suspend 20g in 1 litre of distilled water, mix thoroughly, and autoclave at 121°C for 15 minutes
• Yield: Approximately 25 litres of prepared medium
• Storage: Store the dehydrated medium at 10–30°C, protected from moisture and light
• Compliance: Complies with ISO standards for the enrichment of Vibrio spp., suitable for use in internationally recognised microbiological testing protocols
