BRILLIANCE SALMONELLA AGAR

Reason

The lot number 2125747 is failing to meet the inhibition specification for the Quality Control organism Escherichia coli ATCC 2592 i.e. 2 log inhibition. This lot however supports the growth of Salmonella spp. to the required specification and not all E.coli species are impacted and acceptable inhibition was observed with some strains.
