Scientific Basis: How Enterolert Works

Enterolert uses a Defined Substrate Technology® (DST®) nutrient-indicator to detect enterococci. This nutrient-indicator fluoresces when metabolized by enterococci. DST improves accuracy and avoids the need for hazardous sodium azide suppressants used in traditional media.
