Introduction
Intended Use
For the isolation and differentiation of sorbitol-negative Escherichia coli serotype O157 from food and animal feed and other materials
Principle and Interpretation
Enzymatic digest of casein and enzymatic digest of animal tissue provides nitrogen source, vitamins and growth factors; sodium chloride maintains balanced osmoticpressure; sorbitol is a fermentable sugar; No. 3 bile salt and crystal violet inhibit Gram-positive bacteria, potassiumtellurite inhibits non-o157 Escherichia coli, and cefixime inhibits Proteus; neutral red is a pH indicator; and agar is the coagulant of the culture medium.

Preparation
Weigh 51.5g of this product, add 1L of distilled water or deionized water, stir, heat and boil until completely dissolved, dispense into Erlenmeyer flasks, and sterilize at 121℃ for 15min. Melt the sterilized culture medium and cool it to about 45℃, add 1 tube of supporting reagent (SR0240) (0.25mg potassium tellurite and 0.005mg Cefixime) to every 100mL of basal culture medium, mix and pour into the plate.
