Selenite Broth Dehydrated Culture Media

The medium's primary benefit is its powerful selective action, allowing damaged Salmonella cells to recover and proliferate without being overgrown by competing intestinal flora. This is vital because even injured cells, which may not form colonies on selective agar, can still cause infection if ingested. Selenite Broth conforms with the American Public Health Association (APHA) standards and is specified for clinical and food testing applications. Trust this foundational medium to maximize the recovery and detection of Salmonella in your lab.

Please note: Selenite Broth is for laboratory use in the selective enrichment of Salmonella spp. and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.
