Alkaline peptone water plus 0.5% agar suitable for transport of Vibrio cholerae
ABSTRACT Microbiological procedures for V. cholerae isolation from clinical specimens are important factors in clinical and epidemiological management of cholera. The standard preservation medium for enteric pathogenic bacteria, including V.cholerae, is Cary-Blair medium (CB), a semisolid medium for reservation and transport of specimens containing intestinal bacteria. A special medium for Vib…

Isolation and Antibiotic Sensitivity of Aeromonas From Children with Diarrhea
Aerotnonas species are gram-negative, mot i le, facultative anaerobic, rod shaped, oxidase positive bacteria or the recently assigned family Aeromonadaccae. The significance of Aerolllonas species as causative agent of human diarrhoea has recently been established. The aim of the present study was to investigate the distribution, and antibiotic sensitivity of Aeromunas in nonhospitalized childr…

Comparative Analysis of Transport Media for Isolating Shigella
Transport media for Shigella include buffered glycerol saline (BGS), and Cary-Blair (CB). However being a liquid medium BGS may leak or spill during transport and thus may cause contamination. The other concem is the 30% concentration of glycerol in the inhibitory to some susceptible Shigella species. This study was conducted to determine the best and safe transport media for Shigella Rectal s…
