Notes:
Seven selective differential plating media were evaluated for their effectiveness in recovering eight serotypes (0:3; 0:8; 0:9; 0:11,24; 0:12,25; 0.16; 0:17; and 0:28) of Y. enterocolitica from pure cultures and from artificially inoculated fresh ground pork homogenate. Cefsulodin-irgasan-novobiocin (CIN) agar was the most effective medium for the recovery of Y. enterocolitica. However, Y. enterocolitica 0:12,25 was slightly inhibited on CIN agar. Bismuth sulfite agar, MacConkey, and MacConkey-Tween 80 agars were acceptable; cellobiose-arginine-lysine, desoxycholate citrate, and Salmonella-Shigella agars were the least effective media.
