Principle :- GN Broth is recommended by the Indian Pharmacopoeia (2017) for the selective isolation of Shigella species with subsequent isolation on a selective medium, XLD Agar. The medium contains polypeptone peptone, which provides amino acids and other nitrogenous substances essential for bacterial growth. The selectivity is provided by sodium citrate and sodium deoxycholate which inhibit gram-positive and some gram-negative bacteria such as coliforms. Phosphates serve as a buffering system. Sodium chloride maintains osmotic equilibrium.

Use :- Recommended for enrichment of Shigella from pharmaceutical products in accordance with Indian pharmacopoeia 2017.
