Counts on a new, autoclave-sterilizable violet red bile (VRB-2) agar were compared with counts on freshly boiled VRB agar. Yields on VRB-2 agar averaged 217, 180, 130, and 112% of counts obtained on the control medium for samples of water, cottage cheese, frozen vegetables, and raw milk, respectively. The general principle used for the development of VRB-2 agar could be applied to many other kinds of selective plating media.
将新型可高压灭菌的紫红胆盐(VRB - 2)琼脂上的计数结果与新鲜煮沸的VRB琼脂上的计数结果进行了比较。对于水、 cottage奶酪、冷冻蔬菜和生乳样本,VRB - 2琼脂上的产量分别平均为对照培养基上计数结果的217%、180%、130%和112%。开发VRB - 2琼脂所采用的一般原则可应用于许多其他种类的选择性平板培养基。
