Analysis Note

Soy Peptone provides nitrogenous, carbonaceous, B complex vitamins and other essential growth nutrients. Phosphate provides buffering capacity to the medium. Malachite green serves as a selective agent. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic equilibrium of the media. Salmonella generally survives a slightly high osmotic pressure (due to MgCl2 in the medium), grows at a slightly low pH, and is resistant to malachite green compared to other bacteria, thus making it a selective media for the growth of Salmonella sp.

Application

Rappaport Vassiliadis medium is used for the selective enrichment and presumptive detection of Salmonella sp. in pharmaceutical products.

General description

Rappaport Vassiliadis medium is used for the selective enrichment and presumptive detection of Salmonella sp. This medium is a modification of Rappaport-Vassiliadis enrichment broth and is used for motility enrichment in Petri dishes. It is a rapid and sensitive medium for the isolation of Salmonella sp. and can be seeded directly after pre-enrichment.
