[Use of Ploskirev's medium with tetracycline for the bacteriological diagnosis of dysentery].
The Ploskirev medium with addition of tetracycline in an amount of 10 mu/ml was used for increasing the isolation frequency of dysenteric bacteria. 102 faeces samples from children with acute dysentery were tested. It was shown that the Ploskirev medium with tetracycline was elective and its use is advisable for isolation of antibiotic resistant Shigella.
