Description
A differential medium for the detection, isolation and enumeration of coliforms and intestinal pathogens in water, dairy products and biological specimens. MacConkey Agar corresponds to the medium recommended by the World Health Organization1, the Dept. of Health2 and by Windle Taylor3 for the bacteriological examination of water.
Although principally used for coliforms, this medium may also be employed for the differentiation of other enteric bacteria (including pathogens) and is suitable for the differentiation of Pasteurella species4.
