Nutrient media for study of biologic characteristics of listeria

Scientific-production association “Nutrient media”, Makhachkala, Russia

The commercial nutrient media for study of biologic properties of Listeria monocytogenes were developed. The efficacy of developed media for assessing of motility and lecithinase activity of listeria during establishment of the isolated strain was shown. Developed media allow clear visual registration of mobility and lecithinase activity of listeria during identification of the isolated strains thereby improving the diagnostics of listeriosis.
