A new selective, differential agar medium for isolation of Vibrio cholerae O1: PMT (polymyxin-mannose-tellurite) agar.
A new selective and differential agar medium, polymyxin-mannose-tellurite (PMT) agar was devised to differentiate easily colonies of Vibrio cholerae O1 from those of V. cholerae non-O1. The differentiation between colonies of the two vibrios is based on mannose-fermentation. Colonies of V. cholerae O1 on the agar are agglutinated with O1 antiserum of V. cholerae much more easily than those on t...

This study was carried out to investigate the occurrence of potentially pathogenic species of vibrio in sea water and estuarine environments of the Caspian Sea in the Golestan province of Iran. A total of 127 water samples from coastal waters as well as from river and estuaries were collected and analyzed by culture, during April and September 2001. Following prompt centrifugation, the resusp...
متن کاملModified taurocholate-tellurite-gelatin agar for improved differentiation of Vibrio species.
A total of 78 strains, representing 21 Vibrio species, were examined by using taurocholate-tellurite-gelatin agar (TTGA) medium and modified TTGA medium containing 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-galactoside (150 micrograms/ml). Modified TTGA medium allowed for simple and direct detection of beta-D-galactosidase (beta-gal) activity. This feature, in conjunction with other differential characteristi...
