H2S Medium Kit is used for simultaneous detection of Salmonella and Citrobacter from water samples.
Hydrogen sulphide can be produced at least in small amounts from sulphur containing amino acids. Some bacteria are capable of breaking down sulphur containing amino acids (cystine, methionine) or reducing inorganic sulphur containing compounds (sulfate, thiosulphate) to produce H2S. This reduced sulphur may then be incorporated into other cellular amino acids, or perhaps into coenzymes.
