Use of an improved cetrimide agar medium and other culture methods for Pseudomonas aeruginosa

RESUMO

In a comparison of two selective media for Ps. aeruginosa containing 0·03% cetrimide, stronger fluorescence was obtained from growth on the medium prepared with King's medium B as the base (CTA 2); although Ps. aeruginosa was not isolated more frequently from burns on this medium than from cetrimide agar made with a Lemco base (CTA 1), results were easier to assess and there were fewer cases of doubtful fluorescence on CTA 2 than on CTA 1.
