Simultaneous detection of total coliforms and E. coli enables efficient screening of multiple indicators in one test
Chromogenic and fluorogenic substrates provide clear visual and fluorescent results for easy interpretation
Optimized formulation with enzyme substrates (tryptophan, IPTG) enhances sensitivity and detection accuracy
Phosphate buffers maintain optimal pH for coliform growth and inhibit Gram-positive bacteria
Blue-green color change and blue fluorescence under UV light allow rapid confirmation of results
