BUFFERED GLUCOSE BROTH (MR-VP MEDIUM) (as per BIS)

MR-VP Medium is used for the differentiation of Colon-aerogenes family of bacteria that could be divided into two groups based on their action in a peptone and dextrose medium. The MR and VP tests appear in the identification scheme for Enterobacteriaceae, important isolates in clinical microbiology and food and dairy microbiology testing. MR-VP Broth is also known as Methyl Red-Voges-Proskauer Medium. This formulation is recommended by BIS for the detection of E. coli, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Bacillus cereus responsible for food poisoning.
