Ethyl Violet Azide HiVegâ„¢ Broth (E.V.A. HiVegâ„¢ Broth) 500G

Ethyl Violet Azide HiVegâ„¢ Broth (E.V.A. HiVegâ„¢ Broth) is recommended for selective, confirmatory detection of Enterococci as an indicator of faecal pollution in water and other specimens. Combination of ethyl violet dye and of azide favours the selectivity for the growth of Streptococci (Enterococci) while it inhibits gram-positive bacilli and gram-positive cocci other than Enterococci. Enterococcus faecalis grows luxuriantly on this media and appears as purple button at the bottom of tube. Ethyl Violet Azide HiVegâ„¢ Broth (E.V.A. HiVegâ„¢ Broth) is prepared by using vegetable peptones in place of animal based peptones which make the media free of BSE/TSE risks.
