title: [Optimization of bacteriologic studies of cholera].
abstract: A colored medium is described, consisting of dry nutrient agar, 1 percent mannose, and 0.02 percent bromothymol blue. Use of this medium helps accelerate the process of vibrio growth and differentiate mannose-positive vibrios from mannose-negative ones. The described medium is simple to make and use, thus recommending it for bacteriologic laboratories.
