Utilize motility enrichment on Modified Semi-solid Rappaport Vassiliadis Agar (ISO) for the isolation of Salmonella species from food and environmental samples associated with the primary stage of animal production (such as dust).
• Simple and sensitive method for the isolation ofsalmonellaefrom food and environmental samples.
• Incorporated into ISO 6579:2002+A1:2007 Annex D^1, for the isolation ofsalmonellaefrom animal feces (such as poultry, pigs, and cattle).
• Gram-positive flora is inhibited by novobiocin, low pH, high magnesium chloride concentration, and malachite green.
• Isolation is based on the ability ofsalmonellaeto migrate through the selective medium ahead of competing Gram-negative, motile organisms, thus producing opaque halos of growth.
• Presumptive identification is achieved by subculture onto XLD Agar and a secondSalmonellaagar of choice. Modified Semi-solid Rappaport Vassiliadis Agar (ISO) is based on the formulation described by De Smedt et al., which has been shown to detect more Salmonella positive samples than traditional enrichment procedures. ^2 Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
