Merck Millipore TOS-MUP medium for bifidobacteria enumeration in milk

Monday, 29 August, 2011 | Supplied by: Merck Pty Ltd


TOS-MUP medium is suitable for the enumeration of bifidobacteria in milk products.

In combination with the selective supplement Lithium-Mupirocin (MUP), the TOS Propoinate Agar allows the direct detection of viable bifidobacteria in starter cultures and various milk products like fermented and unfermented milk, milk powder and baby food. The growth of other lactic acid bacteria is very much inhibited so that a confirmation of presumptive bifidobacteria is in most cases not necessary.

The detection of bifidobacteria is done by using the plate count method with an anaerobic incubation at 37°C.

The composition of the medium complies with ISO Standard 29981/IDF 220: 2010.
