Brilliant Green Agar is a selective medium used for the isolation of Salmonella species other than S. typhi from feces, and other materials. Brilliant Green Agar was first described by Kristensen et al. in 1925 and later modified by Kauffman in 1933. It is classified by the USP as a highly selective medium for the recovery of Salmonella species except for typhoid and paratyphoid strains. Brilliant Green dye inhibits Gram positive and most Gram negative bacteria. Phenol red serves as a pH indicator for the fermentation of lactose or sucrose in the medium. It has a final pH of 6.9 ± 0.2 at 25.0°C. It should be stored in the sealed bottle containing the dehydrated medium at 2 to 30.0°C. Once opened and recapped, it should be placed in the container in a low humidity environment at the same storage temperature. It should be protected from moisture and light. The dehydrated medium should be discarded if it is not free flowing or if the color has changed from the original light beige color. Alpha Biosciences #: B02-115-2KG.
