THE RELATIVE EFFICIENCY OF TWO SELECTIVE MEDIA FOR THE ISOLATION OF LACTOBACILLUS SPECIES FROM THE MOUTH

Two selective media, Rogosa S.L. agar and tomato-peptone agar, have been examined with respect to their relative efficiency for the isolation of lactobacillus species from the mouth.

From this work it may be concluded that Rogosa S.L. agar is more selective for oral lactobacilli than the tomato-peptone agar and that, as similar numbers of lactobacilli can be recovered from saliva samples, it is a suitable medium for use in routine lactobacillus counts.
