USE OF BLOOD AGAR WITH SALT FOR SEPARATING TOXIGENIC STAPHYLOCOCCI FROM AIR

Abstract

The article describes the use of blood agar with 5-6.5 percent salt (pH 7.6-7.8) for calculating the amount of toxigenic staphylococci per unit volume of air in closed areas. The advantages of using this medium include: reduced time, conservation of the medium, and more reliable results as compared to other culture mediums.
