ALKALINE PEPTONE WATER 500g
is recommended by OMS and APHA as a transport and enrichment medium for Vibrio spp. The enrichment in liquid medium is necessary for isolation of Vibrio from feces (after the first 48 hours of disease), for the control of carriers and for the examination of drinks, foods or sewage. The high value of pH slows down the development of common contaminants, so that after 6-7 hours of incubation, vibrio, if present, stand out on microscopically examination in dark field.
