EGG MEAT MEDIUM

Organisms that are able to grow in the absence of oxygen are termed as anaerobic organisms. Depending upon their absolute requirement for an on-oxygen environment, they are either classified as facultative or obligate. Egg Meat Medium was used by Rettger for his studies on Escherichia coli and Enterobacter aerogenes. This medium contains particles of beef muscles, calcium carbonate and egg white. This medium was later used in studies of intestinal putrefaction. Egg Meat Medium was subsequently used in the study of spore-forming anaerobes including Clostridium perfringens. This medium is also recommended by AOAC for maintenance of Clostridium used in testing of sporicidal activity of liquid and gaseous chemicals.
