Lauryl tryptose broth

Lauryl tryptose broth (LSB) is a selective growth medium (broth) for coliforms. Lauryl tryptose broth is used for the most probable number test of coliforms in waters, effluent or sewage. It tests for lactose fermentation with gas production. Sodium lauryl sulfate inhibits organisms other than coliforms. Formula in grams/litre (g/l) : 20.0,Lactose : 5.0,Sodium chloride : 5.0,Dipotassium phosphate : 2.75,Potassium dihydrogen phosphate : 2.75,Sodium dodecyl sulfate : 0.1pH 6.8 ± 0.2 Fecal coliforms are distinguished from coliforms by growth in at 113.9 °F (45.5 °C) for 24 hours.
