R & <strong>F®</strong> <strong>Salmonella</strong> (<strong>Nontyphoidal</strong>)<br />

<strong>Chromogenic</strong> <strong>Plating</strong> <strong>Medium</strong><br />

A Selective/Differential <strong>Chromogenic</strong> <strong>Plating</strong> <strong>Medium</strong> For Identifying<br />

<strong>Salmonella</strong> Excluding <strong>Salmonella</strong> Typhi/Paratyphi<br />

Presumptive Positive Colonies of <strong>Salmonella</strong> appear as reddish-pink raised colonies 1.0 to 3.0 mm<br />

diameter with colorless ring after 20 - 24 hours incubation at 35°C<br />

Advantages of R & <strong>F®</strong> <strong>Salmonella</strong> (<strong>Nontyphoidal</strong>) <strong>Chromogenic</strong> <strong>Plating</strong> <strong>Medium</strong><br />

• A highly selective chromogenic plating medium that isolates <strong>Salmonella</strong> sp. excluding <strong>Salmonella</strong><br />

Typhi/Paratyphi while either differentiating from or inhibiting the growth of many similar bacteria<br />

• High specificity and sensitivity; differentiates <strong>Salmonella</strong> and Citrobacter<br />

• Easily prepared from powdered plating medium and powdered supplement<br />

• Prepared plates are stable for at least 45 days in the dark at 2-8°C<br />

• Designed for testing food and environmental samples
