Skirrow's medium is effective for isolating Campylobacters from human faeces but is less suitable for animal and environmental specimens owing to the presence of contaminating species. After determining the sensitivity of 104 strains of Campylobacters to several antimicrobial agents, used singly and in various combinations, a selective medium incorporating polymixin, rifampicin, trimethoprim and actidione, was developed. The medium, called Preston medium, was shown to be more selective than Skirrow's medium and suitable for any kind of specimen.
斯基罗培养基对于从人类粪便中分离弯曲杆菌有效,但由于存在污染菌,不太适合用于动物和环境标本。在测定了104株弯曲杆菌对几种抗菌剂单独使用及多种组合使用的敏感性后,研制出了一种含有多黏菌素、利福平、甲氧苄啶和放线菌酮的选择性培养基。这种称为普雷斯顿培养基的培养基比斯基罗培养基更具选择性,适用于任何类型的标本。
