A study was made of the relative sensitivity and specificity of presumptive and confirmatory media for the most probable number enumeration of enterococci in frozen vegetables. Azide dextrose broth yielded the highest numbers of confirmable enterococci and its sensitivity was shown to be comparable to nonselective media. The use of ethyl violet azide broth as a confirmatory medium resulted in a significant number of false positive tests. Growth in broth containing 6.5% sodium chloride incubated at 45 C for 2 days was found to be a more specific confirmatory test for enterococci. |
