Principle And Interpretation

DEV Lactose Peptone Broth is used for enrichment and titre determination of coliform bacteria.

Meat peptone provides carbon and other essential nutrients for growth. Sodium chloride is for the osmotic balance Lactose is the carbohydrate source. Bromocresol purple is a pH indicator which has a yellow colour below pH 5.3 and purple colour above pH 6.7. Due to the fermentation of lactose and the subsequent acid production the colour changes to yellow (1).
