Beta-galactosidase for distinguishing between Citrobacter and Salmonella.

M J Pickett, R E Goodman.   

Abstract

Detection of beta-galactosidase with the aid of o-nitrophenyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside (ONPG) was examined as a means for distinguishing between Citrobacter and Salmonella. Several factors which influence sensitivity and reliability of the test were studied. A bacteriostat, sodium azide, was included to permit prolonged incubation of weak and negative strains of enteric bacilli. By the procedure described, salmonellae gave negative ONPG tests; all of 171 strains of Citrobacter gave positive tests.
