Abstract

The traditional streak plating and alternative spread-plating methods were compared for detection of pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) in oyster enrichments. We found the alternative method to be more efficient: it was quicker (2d vs. 3d) and had a significantly (p < 0.05) greater detection rate than streak plating.
