Product Description
Bile Esculin Agar is a selective and differential culture medium designed for the isolation and presumptive identification of Group D Streptococci and Enterococcus species. The medium contains bile, which inhibits many Gram-positive organisms, while esculin and ferric citrate enable the detection of esculin hydrolysis through the formation of a dark brown to black complex around colonies.
This dehydrated medium is widely used in microbiology laboratories, food testing laboratories, pharmaceutical quality control facilities, educational institutions, and research laboratories. When prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions, it provides reliable performance for routine microbiological testing and organism differentiation.
