CRONOBACTER SELECTIVE BROTH (CSB) (ISO 22964:2017)

Cronobacter (formerly Enterobacter sakazakii) are gram-negative rod-shaped Enterobacteriaceae that have been implicated in outbreaks of disease causing sepsis, meningitis and necrotising enterocolitis. Cronobacter species have also been isolated from powdered infant formula as high tolerance to desiccation provides a competitive advantage in dry environments increasing the risk of contamination. Cronobacter Screening Broth was specifically designed by Iversenetal. Cronobacter Selective Broth is recommended by ISO Committee for the isolation of Cronobacter species from food samples.
