Source: This medium is available from Merck. Preparation of Medium: Add components to distilled/deionized water and bring volume to 1.0L. Mix well and warm gently until dissolved. Autoclave for 15 min at 15 psi pressure–121°C. Pour into sterile Petri dishes. Some turbidity may occur, but this does not effect the performance.
Use: For the detection of E. coli and coliform bacteria in foods. The interaction of selected peptones, pyruvate, sorbitol, and phosphate buffer guarantees rapid colony growth, even for sublethally injured coliforms. The growth of Gram-positive bacteria as well as some Gramnegative bacteria is largely inhibited by the content of Tergitol 7 which has no negative effect on the growth of the coliform bacteria. A combination of two chromogenic substrates allows for the simultaneous detection of total coliforms and E. coli.The characteristic enzyme for coliforms, β-D-galactosidase, cleaves the Salmon-GAL substrate and causes a salmon to red color of the coliform colonies. The substrate Xglucuronide is used for the identification of β-D-glucuronidase, which is characteristic for E. coli. E. coli cleaves both Salmon-GAL and Xglucuronide, so that positive colonies take on a dark-blue to violet color. These are easily distinguished from other coliform colonies which have a salmon to red color. As part of an additional confirmation of E. coli, the inclusion of tryptophan improves the indole reaction, thereby increasing detection reliability when it is used in combination with the Salmon-GAL and X-glucuronide reaction. © 2010 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC
water and bring volume to 1.0L. Mix thoroughly and heat with frequent agitation until components are completely dissolved (approximately 45 min). Do not autoclave. Cool to 45°–50°C. Pour into sterile Petri dishes. The plates should be clear and colorless.
Use: For the detection of E.coli and total coliforms. The combination of suitable peptones and the buffering using MOPS allows rapid growth of coliforms and an optimal transformation of the chromogenic substrates. The amount of bile salts and propionate largely inhibit growth of Gram-positive and Gram-negative accompanying flora. The simultaneous detection of total coliforms and E.coli is achieved using the combination of two chromogrenic substrates. The substrate Salmon™--β-D-GAL is split by β-D-galactosidase, characteristic for coliforms, resulting in a salmon to red coloration of coliform colonies. The detection of the β-D-glucuronidase, characteristic for E. coli, is cleaved via the substrate X-β-D-glucuronide, causing a blue coloration of positive colonies. As E. coli splits Salmon™-β-D-GAL as well as Xβ-D-glucuronide, the colonies turn to a dark violet color and can be easily differentiated from the other coliforms being salmon-red.

Use: For antimicrobial testing of various pathogenic microorganisms. DSTA is primarily used for susceptibility tests rather than the primary isolation of organisms from clinical samples. An essential requirement for satisfactory antimicrobial susceptibility media is that the reactive levels of thymidine and thymine must be sufficiently reduced to avoid antagonism of trimethoprim and sulphonamides. DSTA meets this

requirement and in the presence of lysed horse blood (or defibrinated horse blood if the plates are stored long enough to allow some lysis of the erythrocytes) the level of thymidine will be further reduced. This is caused by the action of the enzyme thymidine phosphorylase which is released from lysed horse erythrocytes. Thymidine is an essential growth factor for thymidine-dependent organisms and they will not grow in its absence or they will grow poorly in media containing reduced levels.

Enterobacteria Enrichment Broth, Mossel Composition per liter: Pancreatic digest of gelatin ......................................................... 10.0g Na2HPO4, anhydrous .................................................................... 6.4g Glucose, anhydrous....................................................................... 4.5g Bile salts (sodium desoxycholate, sodium lauryl sulphate, sodium citrate) .................................................................... 3.055g KH2PO4 ......................................................................................... 2.0g Brilliant Green .......................................................................... 0.015g pH 7.2 ± 0.2 at 25°C
Source: This medium is available from Merck. Preparation of Medium: Add components to distilled/deionized water and bring volume to 1.0L. Mix well. Distribute into tubes. Autoclave for 15 min at 15 psi pressure–121°C. The prepared broth is clear and yellowish.
Use: For the detection of enterococci in food and water. The sodium azide present in this medium largely inhibits the growth of the accompanying, and especially the Gram-negative microbial flora while sparing the enterococci. The substrate X-GLU (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-glucopyranoside) is cleaved, stimulated by selected peptones, by the enzyme β-D-glucosidase which is characteristic for enterococci. This results in an intensive blue-green color of the broth. Azide, at the same time, prevents a false positive result by most other β-D-glucosidase positive bacteria. Therefore, the color change of the broth largely confirms the presence of enterococci and group D streptococci.

Use: For the isolation and differentiation of enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains from foods. In contrast to most other E. coli strains, E. coli O157:H7 shows the following characteristics: no sorbitol-cleavage capacity within 48 hr and no formation of glucuronidase (MUG-negative/no fluorescence). Sodium deoxycholate inhibits the growth of the Gram-positive accompanying flora for the greater part. Sorbitol serves, together with the pH indicator Bromothymol Blue, to determine the degradation of sorbitol which, in the case of sorbitol-positive microorganisms, results in the colonies turning yellow in color. Sorbitol-negative strains, on the other hand, do not lead to any change in the color of the culture medium and thus proliferate as greenish colonies. Sodium thiosulfate and ammonium iron(III) citrate result in black-brown discoloration of the agar for colonies, in the presence of hydrogen-sulfide-forming pathogens, precipitating iron sulfide. Proteus mirabilis in particular, which displays biochemical properties similar to those of E. coli O157:H7, can thus be very easily

differentiated from E. coli O157:H7 on account of the brownish discoloration. 4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide (MUG) is converted into 4-methylumbelliferone by β-D-glucuronidase-forming pathogens; 4-methylumbelliferone fluoresces under UV light. The activity of β-Dglucuronidase is a highly specific characteristic of E. coli. In contrast to most E. coli strains, E. coli O157:H7 is not capable of forming β-Dglucoronidase. When irradiated with long-wave UV light, no fluorescence is formed.

This culture medium contains Metachrome Yellow, which primarily inhibits the accompanying Gram-positive microbial flora. It also contains lactose, which, when degraded to acid, is shown by the indicator Water Blue, which is deep blue in the acidic range and colorless in the alkaline range. The prepared culture medium is green; in the acidic pH range it becomes bluegreen to blue. At alkaline pHs, however, the yellow color of the Metachrome Yellow becomes increasingly apparent.

Preparation of Medium: Add components, except HTM supplement, to distilled/deionized water and bring volume to 990.0mL. Mix thoroughly. Gently heat and bring to boiling. Autoclave for 15 min at 15 psi pressure– 121°C. Cool to 45°–50°C. Aseptically add 10.0mL of sterile HTM supplement. Mix thoroughly. Pour into sterile Petri dishes or distribute into sterile tubes. Use: For the susceptibility testing of Haemophilus influenzae. The medium forms part of the recommended methods of the United States National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS). Haemophilus influenzae require complex media for growth. These complex media have aggravated the routine susceptibility testing of Haemophilus influenzae because of antagonism between some essential nutrients and certain antimicrobial agents. This medium overcomes those limitations. The transparency of the medium allows zones of inhibition to be read easily through the bottom of the Petri dish. HTM contains low levels of antimicrobial antagonists, which allows testing of trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole to be carried out.
