[Diagnostic effectiveness of nutrient media for the bacteriological detection of enterobacteria].

The effectiveness of new nutrient media intended for the differential isolation of pathogenic and opportunistic enterobacteria (SS agar), as well as for the preliminary identification of enterobacteria, was determined on a wide range the strains of the family Enterobacteriaceae. The comparative evaluation of SS agar and Ploskirev's bactoagar was carried out. The newly developed medium was shown to have advantage in its differentiating and inhibiting properties.
