Description

Isolate and differentiate Salmonella and Shigella species from clinical samples with this selective medium

Isolate and differentiate Salmonella and Shigella species from clinical samples easily and with improved selectivity using Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Hynes Desoxycholate Citrate Agar (Dehydrated).

The medium is pale pink and clear. Lactose fermenting organisms produce pink colonies and may be surrounded by a zone of precipitated desoxycholic acid. The colonies of non-lactose fermenters are colorless, and, due to their alkaline reaction, they are surrounded by a clear orange-yellow zone of medium.

An improved medium, based on the Hynes1 modification of Leifsons2 medium, Desoxycholate Citrate Agar (Hynes Modification) makes the isolation of salmonellae and shigellae easier.

  • Easier colony selection: improved medium gives larger and more numerous colonies of Shigella species which can easily be picked off and emulsified in saline for slide agglutination tests
  • Improved selectivity: more inhibitory to coliforms and Proteus species than the original Desoxycholate Citrate Agar (Part No. CM0035B)
