MILK AGAR (BROWN AND SCOTT, MODIFIED) (DOUBLE PACK) (PART – I) & (PART – II)

Milk Agar was modified by Brown and Scott for the confirmation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in swimming pool waters. Swimming pool water is generally chlorinated potable water but it can also be from thermal springs or salt water. Microorganisms of concern are typically those from the body of the bather’s including the artifices. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the major supporting indicator organisms in the swimming pool. This organism is mainly responsible for ear and eye infection and is very likely to get disseminated in the swimming pool water due to constant contact of ears and eyes with the water.
