Potassium Tellurite solution for use in microbiology applications as an inhibitor of most Gram-negative bacteria and those Gram-positive bacteria that cannot reduce Potassium tellurite. Ready for use with BAIRD PARKER AGAR BASE (Cat. 1100) and GIOLITTI-CANTONI BROTH (Cat. 1232) and other selective media for Staphylococci, Streptococci, Corynebacteria and Vibrio.
Potassium tellurite helps to differentiate these microorganisms from others capable of growing in the base agar, through the formation of black colonies as a result of reducing the Potassium tellurite to Tellurium.
