Determnation of coliform bacteria in bakery yeast.Peer-reviewed article

A. ČEJKOVÁ

A new method has been developed for the determination of coliform bacteria in bakery yeast. Bacteria are cultivated on the End agar with 20 μg of actidione per 1 ml. The End agar - if so modified - positively suppresses the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, as well as of the false yeast from Candida and Mycoderma groups. The best temperature of cultivation is 37˚C. Other culture media, as the Levin medium, desoxycholane medium and agar with trypaflavine and bromthymol blue fail to give satisfactory results.
