Abstract
On reinforced clostridial agar with blood and 0.03% China blue, organisms of the bacteroides group grow with blue translucent colonies, whereas bifidobacteria grow with opaque brown colonies. This permits the differential counting of the predominant anaerobic organisms in human feces on one medium.
