Definition of Chromogenic media
Specialized type of media combining selective ingredients and chromogenic substrates to increase the reliability of bacterial/fungal identification. Each test organism has enzymes that act on the substrates to release chromogens, resulting in a distinct color change in the medium or colonies.
