Escherichia coli

<i>Escherichia coli</i>

Fig. 68:13. Escherichia coli cultivated on a SELMAPLUS plate at 37°C during 24 h. Note that E. coli is growing in sector 1 (blood agar with esculine), sector 2 (MacConkey agar) and sector 3 (PGUA agar). Image A was photographed with lighting from above and image B with lighting from below. Note that a colour change has occured in the PGUA agar, which would not have occured if Klebsiella spp. had been cultivated on this medium. This strain of E. coli does not give hemolysis. The cultivation media in the other sectors are given in the media list under SELMA Plus plate. Date: 2017-06-14.
