This chemically defined medium is used for the isolation and maximum recovery of intestinal pathogens belonging to Salmonella and Shigella groups from foods. Deoxycholate Citrate HiCynth™ Agar is modified by replacing animal and vegetable peptones with chemically defined peptones to avoid risks associated with animal peptones. The selectivity of this medium permits the use of fairly heavy inocula without danger of overgrowth of Shigella and Salmonella by other microflora. For the routine examination of stool and urine specimens, it is suggested that other media such as MacConkey HiCynth™ Agar (MCD082), Bismuth Sulphite HiCynth™ Agar (MCD027) etc. be used in conjunction with this medium.
