Salmonella colonies turn purple! Detection is possible regardless of hydrogen sulfide production or non-production.

Our company offers various selective enrichment media for the foodborne pathogen "Salmonella." This medium is an enzyme substrate medium for the isolation and culture of Salmonella. Salmonella colonies develop a purple color, allowing for clear differentiation from other bacteria. Regardless of hydrogen sulfide production, Salmonella colonies will appear purple, enabling the detection of hydrogen sulfide non-producing Salmonella as well. Additionally, we also provide Rapaport-Vassiliadis liquid medium and tetrathionate liquid medium. Please choose according to your needs. For more details, please refer to the catalog below.

basic information

Salmonella is a representative foodborne pathogen alongside Campylobacter and Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella food poisoning ranks among the top foodborne illnesses in terms of both the number of incidents and patients each year. The testing for Salmonella involves a two-step enrichment culture process: a pre-enrichment culture to recover damaged bacteria, followed by a selective enrichment culture that specifically promotes the growth of Salmonella, after which isolation is performed using agar media. If colonies suspected of being Salmonella appear, further confirmation tests are conducted, so standard testing takes about four days to reach a conclusion.
