Methyl red
Methyl red is a chemical compound commonly used as a pH indicator in laboratory settings. It is a reddish-orange powder that exhibits different colors depending on the pH of the solution it is added to. Methyl red is used to determine the acidity or basicity of a solution, as it changes color from red in acidic solutions to yellow in basic solutions.

Salmonella and E. coli Detection in Eggs
Suspect colonies from each sample were subcultured onto selective and non-selective agar to ensure that possible contaminants were absent. Further, isolates were inoculated onto composite media, including triple sugar iron agar, urea, lysine iron agar, Voges–Proskauer, methyl red (HiMedia, India), and SIM medium (HiMedia) [11 ]. All suspected Salmonella and E. coli colonies were further identified using Analytical Profile Index 20 E systems (bioMerieux SA, Marcy-1 Etoile, France). E. coli (ATCC 25922) was used as a quality control organism. Pure bacterial isolates were kept frozen at −80°C in 10% (v/v) glycerol peptone water broth for the evaluation of the antimicrobial sensitivity test.

Bacterial Identification Protocol
The bacterial growth medium used was Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA) (Oxoid) with a concentration of 38 g/L, according to the guidelines from the CLSI [14] .
Biochemical test materials for bacterial identi cation include Lactose (Merck), Mannose (Merck), Maltose (Merck), peptone (Oxoid), phenol red (Taylor), Kovac`s reagent (Bio-Rad), TSIA, methyl red (HiMEdia), αnaphthosl (Merck).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
