Rapid Listeria Selective Enrichment Broth is recommended for the rapid and selective enrichment of Listeria species from food. This medium supports rapid growth of microorganisms in 18-24 hours. Inhibitor mix present in the medium helps in inhibiting the non target organism. It can be used as an selective enrichment medium prior to plating on an selective or chromogenic medium for Listeria.
