ISOLATION OF SALMONELLAE BY SELECTIVE MOTILITY SYSTEMS

P F STUART et al. Appl Microbiol. 1965 May.

Abstract

Salmonellae were isolated from naturally infected swine and human feces by means of selective migration through semisolid enrichment (SM) media in modified "U" tubes. Comparative studies showed that recovery of Salmonella by SM techniques was equal or superior to that of standard procedures employed in two routine diagnostic laboratories. Primary Salmonella isolations from SM enrichment were relatively free from normal fecal bacteria and often pure. The SM method required only 15% of the media and correspondingly less time and skill than the usual methods for isolating Salmonella.
