The invention discloses a composite 
enrichment culture medium capable of simultaneously enriching three food-borne 
pathogenic bacteria, namely 
Listeria monocytogenes, 
Escherichia coli O157:H7 and 
salmonella, and a preparation method. The formula of the culture medium comprises the following components of, in parts by weight, 15.0-19.0 parts of 
tryptone, 2.7-3.3 parts of peptone, 5.5-6.5 parts of 
yeast extract, 4.5-5.5 parts of 
sodium chloride, 2.25-2.75 parts of 
dipotassium phosphate, 8.6-10.6 parts of 
disodium hydrogen phosphate, 1.22-1.48 parts of 
potassium dihydrogen 
phosphate, 24.0-30.0 parts of peptone, 14.0-18.0 parts of beef 
powder, 10.0-14.0 parts of soy peptone, 2.0-5.0 parts of glucose, 0.10-0.30 part of actinomycete 
ketone, 2.5-3.5 parts of 
mannitol, 4.5-6.5 parts of 
sodium pyruvate, 0.00125-0.00300 part of 
acridine yellow, 0.0007813-0.0032500 part of 
fosfomycin sodium and 1000 parts of 
distilled water, and the pH value of theculture medium is 6.8-7.4. The single enrichmenteffect of the composite 
enrichment culture medium is superior to that of respective selective enrichment liquid, growth of non-target 
bacteria can be well inhibited, under the condition that non-target 
bacteria exist, the culture medium can further achieve constant-speed and rapid proliferation of the three target 
bacteria.
