Popis: | A selective agar medium (pork plasma medium for S. aureus (PPSA)) enables the direct enumeration of coagulase-positive staphylococci. This medium is based on the Baird-Parker agar without egg yolk and is supplemented with pig plasma. Colonies of Staphylococcus aureus are surrounded by a halo of precipitated fibrin. When foods such as dairy products contain large numbers of egg yolk – negative strains of S. aureus, the PPSA agar has the advantage over egg yolk containing media such as Baird-Parker agar that fewer suspect colonies have to be confirmed. |
