Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a culture medium for microorganism detection, in particular to a chromogenic culture medium for detecting Escherichia coli O157:H7. Background technique
[0002] Food microbiological safety is the top priority in food safety. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 is a group of Escherichia coli that can cause bloody diarrhea and enteritis in humans, including O157: H7, O157: NM, O26: H11, O111: H8, O125: NM, O121: H19, O45: H2, O4: NM, O145: NM, O5: NM, O91: H21, O103: H2, O113: H2 and other serotype partial strains. Among them, Escherichia coli O157: H7 serotype is the representative strain, which is a serious intestinal infectious pathogen newly discovered in recent years.
[0003] Escherichia coli O157:H7 is basically similar to Escherichia coli in other common features except that it does not ferment or slowly ferment sorbitol and the encoded β-glucuronidase is inactive. The traditional detection method of Escheri...
