PROTEOSE AGAR

Vibrios are fairly easy to isolate from both clinical and environmental materials, though some species may require growth factors and /or vitamins. Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the leading cause of bacterial diarrhoea associated with the consumption of contaminated food products. Media can be made selective for Vibrios by addition of appropriate selective agents. High concentrations of NaCl and alkaline pH have also been used to select certain Vibrio species, based on the ability of most Vibrios to grow at pH values above 8.0 and at 3% or higher concentrations of NaCl.
