Abstract
The present invention is directed to methods and media for the growth, enrichment, isolation, and presumptive identification of enteric pathogens such as E. coli 0157:H7 and Salmonella. In particular, the organisms commonly associated with gastrointestinal infections of humans and other animals are distinguished based on their growth, colonial morphology and color. The present invention is also directed to methods and media for the growth, enrichment, isolation and presumptive identification of enteric pathogens such as E. coli 0157:H7 and Salmonella isolated from food, water, dairy, and environmental samples.
