Enrichment medium and control system for isolation of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni from stools.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Enrichment culture with a semisolid medium increased by 6% the isolation rate of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni. The semisolid enrichment medium was also used successfully as a transport medium for Campylobacter isolates. A blood agar plate streaked with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Clostridium perfringens, and a laboratory strain of Campylobacter was a good control system for the microaerophilic atmosphere. Good growth of all three organisms indicated satisfactory conditions for culturing Campylobacter.
