產品名稱：MAC-CONKEY AGAR NO 3 
產品貨號：OXOID CM0115B         
產品規格：500G
Description
A more selective modification of MacConkey medium which is suitable for the detection and enumeration of coliform organisms and also for the detection and isolation of Salmonella and Shigella species occurring in pathological and food specimens. Due to the inclusion of a specially prepared fraction of bile salts in addition to crystal violet, the medium gives improved differentiation between coliforms and non-lactose fermenting organisms whilst Gram-positive cocci are completely inhibited.
This formulation corresponds with that recommended by the American Public Health Association1 for the direct plating of water samples for coliform bacilli, for the examination of food samples for food poisoning organisms2 and for the isolation of Salmonella and Shigella species in cheese3.
Amongst other examples of the use of Oxoid MacConkey Agar No.3 are: the count of coli-aerogenes bacteria in poultry faecal specimens4; the count of coli-aerogenes bacteria in cattle and sheep faeces5; the count of coli-aerogenes and non- lactose fermenting organisms in poultry carcases6; bacterial counts on irradiated canned minced chicken7; the recognition of coli-aerogenes bacteria during investigations on the genus Aeromonas8.
Anderson et al 9 added 10mg/ml of kanamycin to MacConkey Agar to isolate epidemic strains of Citrobacter diversus which were causing neonatal meningitis.
The addition of 100mg of 4-methylumbelliferyl-ß-D-glucuronide to one litre of MacConkey Agar detects the enzyme ß-glucuronidase10. The cleaved 4-methylumbelliferyl moiety is fluorescent at 366nm. Thus colonies of Escherichia coli can be detected rapidly in mixed cultures by examining the plate under a UV lamp after overnight incubation at 35°C. However, it should be remembered that other organisms may also be ß-glucuronidase positive.
