Universal Pre-enrichment Broth Dehydrated Culture Media

The broth's core benefit is its superior ability to support cell repair. Its formula provides sufficient buffering capacity to prevent rapid decreases in pH, actively allowing injured cells (often sensitive to low pH or inhibitory substances) to repair damage caused by food preservation techniques. Universal Pre-enrichment Broth is specifically required as the pre-enrichment medium for Salmonella testing of high-risk foods like juices, ciders, cantaloupes, and tomatoes according to FDA/BAM Methods, guaranteeing regulatory compliance and reliable results.

Please note: Universal Pre-enrichment Broth is for laboratory use for the recovery of pathogens and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.
