چکیده
Eight commercially available selective media were evaluated by the membrane filter technique. Enterococcosel broth (BBL) consistently gave the best recovery of group D streptococci, particularly of Streptococcus bovis.

Pfizer selective enterococcus agar overlay method for the enumeration of fecal streptococci by membrane filtration.
The use of Pfizer selective enterococcus (PSE) agar with the membrane filter technique for the enumeration of fecal streptococci is limited due to the inability of the characteristic black precipitate, indicative of esculin hydrolysis, to diffuse from the medium through the membrane. A modification of the membrane filter technique that consisted of placing the membrane on PSE agar and overlayin...
متن کاملEvaluation of Pfizer selective enterococcus and KF media for recovery of fecal streptococci from water by membrane filtration.
Pfizer selective enterococcus (PSE) and KF agars were compared for their recovery of fecal streptococci from sewage effluent on membrane filters. The results showed that PSE agar is highly selective for the enterococci. The tan color resulting from esculin hydrolysis, which was not always visible on the surfaces of the colonies, is not considered a necessary differential characteristic on PSE a...
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 ...
متن کاملEffects of selective media and atmosphere of incubation on the isolation of group A streptococci.
The effects of selective media and atmosphere of incubation on the isolation of group A beta-hemolytic streptococci were evaluated. Sheep blood agar medium with gentamicin (2.5 or 5.0 mug/ml) was inferior to antibiotic-free sheep blood agar medium. This resulted from the partial restriction of group A streptococcal growth on gentamicin medium. Recovery of beta-hemolytic streptococci from specim...
متن کاملComparative Evaluation of Five Selective and Differential Media for the Detection and Enumeration of Coagulase-positive Staphylococci in Foods.
Five selective media for the detection and enumeration of coagulase-positive staphylococci were evaluated for their efficiency in the recovery of 17 strains of coagulase-positive staphylococci from foods. They were Staphylococcus Medium 110 (SM-110), tellurite-glycine-agar (TGA), egg-tellurite-glycine-pyruvate-agar (ETGPA), tellurite-egg-agar (TEA), and tellurite-polymyxin-egg yolk-agar (TPEY)....
