CHROMagar™ ECC, 500g
CHROMagar™ ECC is a selective chromogenic culture medium for the detection, differentiation, and enumeration of β-glucuronidase-positive Escherichia coli and coliforms in food, water, and environmental samples. The medium enables rapid assessment of fecal and general coliform contamination, supporting microbiological monitoring and regulatory compliance for water and food safety testing.
👉 Key Performance Features:
Simultaneous Detection and Differentiation: Enables concurrent detection and differentiation of Escherichia coli and total coliforms on a single medium, supporting rapid assessment of fecal (E. coli) versus general coliform contamination.
Distinct Chromogenic Differentiation: Produces high-contrast mauve E. coli and blue coliform colonies with minimal color overlap, facilitating clear interpretation and reducing misidentification.
Method Versatility: Suitable for direct plating, membrane filtration, and pour plate applications, providing flexibility across a range of water testing workflows.
Water Quality Monitoring: Designed for microbiological analysis of water samples in support of regulatory and environmental monitoring programs, including drinking, recreational, and environmental waters.
