RESUMO
Colistin-polymyxin B-cellobiose agar was employed for the isolation of Vibrio vulnificus from shellfish. Isolates were examined phenotypically and with a gene probe and monoclonal antibody specific for V. vulnificus. Results indicated that colistin-polymyxin B-cellobiose agar is superior to both sodium dodecyl sulfate-polymyxin B-sucrose agar and thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose agar in its ability to select and differentiate this species from background vibrios.
