Overview

Selectively isolate Salmonellae, other than Salmonella enterica serovars Typhi and Paratyphi from food samples or other material using InMicro® Dehydrated: Brilliant Green Agar. Kristensen developed Brilliant Green Agar for isolation of Salmonella. Moats added novobiocin to the medium which inhibited growth of Proteus in cultures from beef and poultry products.

This medium contains casein and meat peptones which provide nitrogen, amino acids and peptides necessary for bacterial growth. Yeast extract is a source of B-complex vitamins. Sodium chloride is a source of essential electrolytes and maintains osmotic equilibrium. Lactose- and sucrose-fermenting colonies occasionally growing on this medium will be yellow-green in color surrounded by a yellow-green zone. Salmonella colonies range from reddish or pink to nearly white in color with a red zone. Novobiocin suppresses the growth of Proteus and, to a lesser extent, Escherichia coliCitrobacter, and Pseudomonas. In separate studies, Devenish and Cooke added novobiocin to Brilliant Green Agar to further improve selectivity.

  • Selective media – Brilliant green dye in the medium makes this medium inhibits the growth of non-target organisms.
  • Easy-to-read – Phenol red in the medium serves as an acid base indicator giving yellow color to lactose and sucrose fermenting bacteria.
