Agar medium for differential enumeration of lactic streptococci.
An agar medium containing arginine and calcium citrate as specific substrates, diffusible (K(2)HPO(4)) and undiffusible (CaCO(3)) buffer systems, and bromocresol purple as the pH indicator was developed to differentiate among lactic streptococci in pure and mixed cultures. Milk was added as the sole source of carbohydrate (lactose) and to provide growth-stimulating factors. Production of acid f...
متن کاملModified Pseudomonas agar: new differential medium for the detection/enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in mineral water.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been implicated as a foodborne and waterborne pathogen and is now considered a primary infectious agent. In the present study, the survival of P. aeruginosa inoculated in mineral water was evaluated by drop counts on Pseudomonas Agar Base (PAB), PAB with CN supplement X107, PAB with cetrimide, PAB with nalidixic acid, and these media with added FeSO(4). Initial counts...
متن کاملA differential medium for the enumeration of homofermentative and heterofermentative lactic Acid bacteria.
A medium was developed for the differential enumeration of homofermentative and heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria. Essential components of the medium included fructose (14 mM), KH(2)PO(4) (18 mM), bromcresol green (as a pH indicator), and other nutrients to support growth. In agar medium, homofermentative colonies were blue to green, while heterofermentative colonies remained white. A tot...
متن کاملCrystal Violet Agar as a Differential Medium for Staphylococci.
In a previous paper Chapman, Berens, Peters and Curcio (1934) showed that staphylococci could be differentiated on the basis of their hemolysis and coagulase reactions. It was further shown that a critical interpretation of the hemolysis test depended upon an accurate knowledge of the pigment production of the strain. The existence of intermediate-colored strains or of dissociants showing wide ...
متن کاملSuitability of MRS-bile Agar for the Selective Enumeration of Mixed Probiotic Bacteria in Presence of Mesophilic Lactic Acid Cultures and Yoghurt Bacteria
Measuring the viability of probiotic microorganisms in food products using plate count methodology is a common practice due to the simplicity (ease of performance), inexpensive and routine testing characters ofthis method. In present study, the suitability of de man rogosa and sharpe agar (MRS) bile agar medium forthe selective enumeration of mixed probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus ...
