Neogen® Soleris® Coliform Vials, 9 mL

Coliform vials are essential screening tools in the food processing industry for detecting coliform organisms, ensuring food safety and quality control. With broad inclusivity and an assay time of 14 to 24 hours, these vials are ideal for various applications, including water testing and dairy analysis. Each vial features a peptone yeast extract base with lactose as the carbon source, alongside selective agents such as bile salts and sodium lauryl sulfate to inhibit gram-positive bacteria. The lactose utilization leads to acidification of the medium, causing a visible color change from purple to yellow, which is accurately detected by optical sensors in food safety instrumentation. Utilizing coliform vials helps food manufacturers comply with health regulations and maintain high standards in microbiological testing.
