Popis: | In this study we have investigated the efficiency of presently available culture media for the isolation of shigellae. XLD was found to be the medium of choice, combined with both less and more selective culture media (e.g. MacConkey, and Hektoen or DCA). By using these media in combination it was found that not only were shigellae isolated more often and efficiently, but fewer problems were encountered in isolating other Enterobacteriaceae. |
