FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: method provides test inoculation of a nutrient medium containing pancreatic fish flour hydolyzate, fermentative meat peptone, NaCl, Tween-80, CaCl2, sodium thiosulphate (Na2S2O3 × 5H2O), ferrous ammonium sulphate ((NH4)2SO4 × FeSO4 × 6H2O), sorbite, bromthymol blue, irgasan (DP-300), rifampicin, NaOH, agar and distilled water in the preset proportions. Pancreatic fish flour hydolyzate, peptone, NaCl, agar are dissolved with heating, sterilised at 121°C for 20 min and thereafter added in a hot medium of the other components specified above. The inoculations are incubated on the nutrient medium in aerobic conditions at temperature 37°C and/or 28°C for 24-48 h and assessed by the presence of black-centre green or dark grey colonies surrounded by a cloudy precipitate zone in the nutrient medium.
EFFECT: invention allows simplifying and providing higher specificity of Shewanella bacteria recovery and identification.
