XLT-4 Agar
Xylose Lysine Tergitol-4 is a selective culture medium for the isolation and identification of non-typhi Salmonellae from food and environmental samples. It is similar to XLD agar however the agar is supplemented with the surfactant, Tergitol 4, which causes inhibition of Proteus spp. and other non-Salmonellae. Successful growth of Salmonella will result in growth of red colonies with a black center.
BUY PLATESDouble Modified Lysine Iron Agar (DMLIA)
DMLIA is recommended for the selective and differential isolation of Salmonella spp. from food. However, some Salmonella spp. could be overlooked on LIA due to their atypical appearance and the growth of non-salmonella Enterobacteriaceae. LIA was modified to provide better detection of hydrogen sulfide-positive and -negative strains through the addition of novobiocin, bile salts, lactose, and sucrose.
BUY PLATESBrilliant Green Agar with Novobiocin
BGN: BG Sulfa Agar is a selective medium recommended for the isolation of Salmonellae other than S. typhi and S. paratyphi, from food samples. The addition of novobiocin to the medium reduces the incidence of competitor organisms with Salmonella.
