OXOID
Oxoid™ Brilliant Green Agar Modified (500g) is a selective medium used for the isolation of Salmonella species (excluding Salmonella Typhi) from food, water, and clinical samples. The modified formulation contains brilliant green dye, which inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and many Gram-negative bacilli, while allowing Salmonella to grow. The inclusion of lactose and sucrose enables differentiation based on fermentation, as non-fermenting Salmonella produce red to pink colonies, often surrounded by a red zone, whereas fermenters typically form yellow to green colonies.
