Principles and uses
Alkaline Saline Peptone Water is used for the pre-enrichment and selective enrichment of Vibrio spp for detection of potentially enteropathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio vulnificus.
Pathogenic Vibrio to humans causes cholera, choleral diarrhea or food poisoning from contaminated foods and from stool specimens. The last two conditions especially can be caused by ingesting raw or partially processed fish or seafood containing Vibrio parahemolyticus. Peptone provides nitrogen, vitamins, minerals and amino acids essential for growth. Sodium chloride promotes growth (Vibrio grows well in salty media).
