A note on the stability of Rappaport-Vassiliadis enrichment medium. 1985

P Vassiliadis, and C Mavrommati, and M Efstratiou, and G Chronas

After pre-enrichment in buffered peptone water, 376 samples from chicken carcasses, minced meat, pork sausages, faeces of healthy pigs and sewage-polluted seawater were enriched in Rappaport--Vassiliadis medium prepared either 4 d or 6-7 months before use. It was observed that the two media were equally effective in detecting Salmonella spp., (82 positive samples with each medium) and in their ability to inhibit competing organisms.

D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture

D012475 Salmonella A genus of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria that utilizes citrate as a sole carbon source. It is pathogenic for humans, causing enteric fevers, gastroenteritis, and bacteremia. Food poisoning is the most common clinical manifestation. Organisms within this genus are separated on the basis of antigenic characteristics, sugar fermentation patterns, and bacteriophage susceptibility.
