Fluorescein amine media for rapid differentiation of staphylococci.
Kimler, Alexander (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md.). Fluorescein amine media for rapid differentiation of staphylococci. J. Bacteriol. 82:106-109. 1961.-By modifying conventional media to include blood, mannitol, and fluorescein amine, staphylococci may be isolated and identified directly. Staphylococcus aureus, mannitol positive, fluoresces, whereas Staphylococcus epidermidis, mannitol negative, does not.
