Enterobacteria Enrichment Broth, Mossel is used for isolation and cultivation of Enterobacteriaceae from pharmaceutical products in accordance with microbial limit testing by harmonized methodology of USP/EP/BP/JP/IP.
The enumeration of Enterobacteriaceae is of great concern in monitoring the sanitary quality of foods. Most Enterobacteriaceae are easily injured during food-processing procedures, especially by exposure to low temperatures, sub marginal heat, drying, radiation, preservatives or sanitizers. The ability to successfully recover these organisms depends upon the proper resuscitation of damaged or sub-lethally injured cells.
