Selenite Broth Base contains lactose as a source of fermentable carbohydrate which helps to prevent any rise in pH value during incubation, thereby preventing any loss of selective activity of selenite.

Use Selenite Broth Base for enrichment and isolation of Salmonella from feces, urine, water, foods, and materials of sanitary importance.

• Selective against non-target Gram-positive flora in the first few hours of incubation
• Routinely employed for detection of Salmonella from fecal specimens since Salmonella usually represent only a small percentage of the intestinal flora present
