The ability of Dey and Engley (D/E) Neutralizing Medium to recover Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 from tile surfaces exposed to a commercial phenol (Mikro-Bac) and a quaternary ammonium compound (Mikro-Quat) was compared to recovery with Letheen Medium. Standard Methods Medium was used as a control recovery medium. Organisms were exposed to both antimicrobials for varying time periods, then were recovered by swab and Rodac plate on both test media. The recovery by either procedure was significantly higher with Dey and Engley (D/E) Neutralizing Medium than with Letheen and Standard Methods Medium. The D/E Medium shows promise for evaluating antimicrobial chemicals used in environmental sanitation.
将戴伊和恩格利（D/E）中和培养基从暴露于商用苯酚（Mikro-Bac）和季铵化合物（Mikro-Quat）的瓷砖表面回收金黄色葡萄球菌ATCC 6538的能力，与用莱特欣培养基回收的能力进行了比较。标准方法培养基用作对照回收培养基。将微生物暴露于两种抗菌剂不同时间段，然后通过在两种测试培养基上擦拭和使用罗达克平板进行回收。通过任何一种方法，用戴伊和恩格利（D/E）中和培养基回收的数量均显著高于用莱特欣培养基和标准方法培养基回收的数量。D/E培养基在评估环境卫生中使用的抗菌化学品方面显示出前景。
