  • Description

    Deoxycholate Lactose Agar is a modification of Deoxycholate Agar as described by Leifson and prepared according to formula specified in Standard Methods for Examination of Dairy Products, Water and Waste Water and Food for the detection of coliform bacilli. It differs from Deoxycholate Agar by its decreased concentration of sodium deoxycholate. Deoxycholate Citrate Agar w/ 1.5% Agar is similar to but less selective and inhibitory than Deoxycholate Lactose Agar. However, the colonial characteristics are identical on the two media. The less inhibitory media is often preferable when Shigellae are being sought as well as Salmonellae.
