Description

【Product name】

Common Name: MacConkey Agar (MAC)
English name:Maconkey Agar

【Model specifications】

250g/Bottle

【Intended Use】

Used for selective isolation and cultivation of intestinal pathogenic bacteria.

【Verification principle】

Culture medium is a mixed nutritional product prepared by artificial methods, specifically for microbial cultivation, separation, identification, research, and preservation. The peptone contained in MacConkey agar (MAC) provides carbon and nitrogen sources, vitamins, and growth factors; Lactose is a fermentable sugar; Sodium chloride maintains intracellular and extracellular osmotic pressure; Bile salt and crystal violet can inhibit the growth of Gram positive bacteria; Neutral red is a pH indicator.

【Composition】

It is made from culture medium materials such as peptone, lactose, sodium chloride, bile salt, crystal violet agar, and indicator by ball milling and packaging.

【Usage method】

After pre-treatment according to GB standards, the samples were inoculated into a culture medium at 36 ± 1 ℃ for 24-48 hours, and the results were observed.

【Inspection results】

Shigella flexneri grows well, colorless to light pink, semi transparent brown or green colonies; Escherichia coli grows well, bright peach red or pink, and can have bile acid precipitation; The growth of Staphylococcus aureus is inhibited.
