EMB (eosin methylene blue) agar - ✔️✔️selective and differential, inhibits growth of
gram-positive and permits the differentiation of gram negative intestinal pathogens
based on lactose fermentation (E. coli-dark center metallic green, E. aerogenes-mucoid
and large, S. enterditis)
MAC (MacConkey's) agar - ✔️✔️selective and differential, crystal violet and bile salts
to inhibit gram positive, those that can ferment lactose acidically appear red, negative
appears colorless; determined by neutral red (S. enteriditis, E. coli)
