Neo Enrichment Broth Base is recommended as a selective enrichment broth for Listeria species from food samples.It is a medium developed for the selective enrichment and isolation of Listeria species from food samples. Recovery of Listeria species can be achieved in 24 hours using Neo Enrichment Broth. Neo Enrichment Broth Base therefore, is a single enrichment medium, which eliminates the need of secondary enrichment and the recovery levels of Listeria species at 24 hours are comparable to the ISO enrichment method.This allows the early detection of Listeria species as primary and secondary enrichment steps are avoided, which are time consuming.
