[Use of bentonite clays as accumulation media for enterobacteria].
Bentonite media consisting of phosphate saline buffer and bentonite corpuscles of certain size are proposed as accumulation media for Enterobacteriaceae. The "attitude" of the studied bacteria to bentonite particles of different size is selective. Salmonella and Shigella multiply in medium consisting of 0.001 mm particles in 1% concentration similarly as in common growth media. The growth of Yersinia in medium of 0.05-mm corpuscles in 1% concentration was 3 Lg higher than in common growth medium. Bentonite media are cheap, easily available, and economic in comparison with common accumulation media.
