2- Triple sugar iron (TSI) agar
Principle:
 it contains three types of sugars (lactose, sucrose and
dextrose)
(The conc. of lactose and sucrose is 10 times that of
dextrose.)
 It contains phenol red indicator.
 It contains soft agar to enhance gas appearance.
 It contains also ferrous sulfate as an indicator for H2S
production. H S + FeSo

4- Oxidation Fermentation (O/F) Test
Principle:
 Using sensitive O/F medium (Hugh and Leifson Medium)
 All enterobacteriaceae are O+/F+ (Fermentative)
Sensitive O/F Test (Hugh and Leifson Medium)
Principle:
sensitive O/F medium is a specifically
formulated medium to detect weak acids
produced from saccharolytic Gram’s –ve
bacteria.
To be more sensitive this medium contains:
• Higher conc. of sugar to increase amount of acid produced.
•Lower amount of peptone to reduce formation of alkaline
amines which neutralize weak acids formed.
•Lower conc. of agar making the medium semisolid to
facilitate diffusion of acid throughout the medium.
