Detection & Enumeration of Coagulase-Positive Staphylococci: This broth is designed for the detection and enumeration of coagulase-positive staphylococci in food and animal feeding stuffs using the Most Probable Number (MPN) technique, according to ISO 6888-3:2003
Historical Application & Expansion: Originally developed by Giolitti and Cantoni for staphylococci enrichment from foodstuffs, this medium was later adapted by Mossel for use with samples from dried milk and infant food
Optimized Growth Conditions: This broth is formulated to promote growth of stressed or low-number staphylococci, with growth enhancers including sodium pyruvate, glycine, and a high concentration of mannitol
