BISMUTH SULPHITE AGAR MODIFIED for the selective isolation and preliminary identication of Salmonella Typhi and other Salmonellae from pathological materials, sewage, water supplies, food, etc.s. Bismuth Sulphite Agar may be inhibitory to some strains of Salmonella species and therefore should not be used as the sole selective medium for these organisms.Also, this medium favours the use of larger inoculum as compared to other selective media, as it has unique inhibitory action toward gram-positive organisms and coliforms. Peptone and peptone B serve as sources of carbon, nitrogen, vitamins, and essential growth factors. Dextrose (Glucose) is the carbon source.
