Abstract

The performance of four selective media for enumerating Staphylococcus aureus in artificially contaminated samples of corned beef was strain-dependent. Baird-Parker (BP), Kranep (KR), Mannitol Salt (MS) and Staphylococcus medium 110 (S110) performed equally well in enumerating an enterotoxin A producing strain, but KR and BP were significantly better than S110 in enumerating an enterotoxin D producing strain of S. aureus. In naturally contaminated cheese samples which abound with competing microorganisms, BP performed significantly better than the other three media.
