Sorbitol MacConkey Agar 90mm Plates Pk 10

Sorbitol MacConkey Agar (SMAC) is a selective and differential medium formulated for the detection and isolation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and other E. coli strains from food, clinical, and environmental samples. This modified version of MacConkey Agar replaces lactose with sorbitol, allowing E. coli O157:H7 (which does not ferment sorbitol) to form colorless colonies, while most other E. coli strains appear pink.

These pre-poured 90mm plates provide a convenient, ready-to-use solution for accurate and consistent microbiological testing.
