Description

For the selective isolation of coagulase-positive, mannitol-positive Staphylococcus aureus strains in clinical specimens and foods.

  • Selective agents incorporated into the medium are glycine and lithium chloride, which inhibit the growth of most other microorganisms
  • Potassium tellurite is an inhibitory agent and is easily reduced by coagulase-positive staphylococci, leaving a black precipitate in the colony
  • The Association of Analytical Chemists (AOAC) has recommended the medium for detection of S. aureus in foods
  • The pH indicator phenol red enables the detection of mannitol fermentation, a differentiating characteristic of most strains of Staphylococcus aureus
