Universal Pre-enrichment Broth (7510)
Intended Use
Universal Pre-Enrichment Broth is expertly formulated for the recovery of Salmonella spp. and Listeria spp., providing a reliable medium for food safety testing.
Product Summary and Explanation
Traditional recovery methods for Salmonella and Listeria often require distinct pre-enrichment media for each pathogen, leading to complexity in testing protocols. Conventional broth media can sometimes contain antibiotic inhibitors or lack adequate buffering capacity, which can significantly impede the recovery of sublethally injured microorganisms.
The Universal Pre-Enrichment Broth, developed by Bailey and Cox, addresses these challenges by enabling the simultaneous resuscitation of sublethally injured cells of both Salmonella and Listeria. This innovative broth provides optimal buffering capacity to maintain stable pH levels, effectively preventing rapid declines that can adversely affect cell recovery.
This versatile broth is specifically designed for use in the pre-enrichment step for Salmonella testing in a variety of food products, including:
Universal Pre-Enrichment Broth complies with FDA/BAM Methods for food safety testing, ensuring that laboratories can confidently detect and recover contaminants in food samples while adhering to industry standards.
Key Features:
- Supports simultaneous recovery of Salmonella spp. and Listeria spp.
- Adequate buffering capacity prevents pH drops
- Facilitates repair of injured cells sensitive to inhibitors
- Suitable for testing a wide range of food products
Choose Universal Pre-Enrichment Broth for efficient and reliable microbiological testing, ensuring the safety and quality of your food products.
