TRYPTOSE SULPHITE NEOMYCIN AGAR

Clostridium perfringens food poisoning is one of the most common types of human foodborne illness. The foods usually involved are cooked meat or poultry containing large numbers of viable cells. A heat labile enterotoxin produced only by sporulation cells induces the major symptoms of diarrhea in perfringens poisoning. Tryptose Sulphite Neomycin Agar is a modification of Mossel Medium developed by Marshall et alfor the selective isolation and enumeration of C.perfringens from food. Thioglycollate addition is recommended if the cultured medium is to be incubated anaerobically.
