MacConkey Agar No.3, 500g, Oxoid


Detect and enumerate coliform organisms, including Escherichia coli, while isolating and detecting Salmonella and Shigella spp. in both clinical and food specimens using Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ MacConkey Agar No.3. A modification of the original MacConkey medium by the addition of selected bile salts, the medium gives improved differentiation of coliforms and non-lactose fermenting organisms while completely inhibiting Gram-positive cocci.



Use MacConkey Agar No. 3 for detection and enumeration of coliform organisms while isolating and detecting Salmonella and Shigella spp. in pathological and food specimens.

  • Selective and differential: due to the inclusion of a specially prepared fraction of bile salts in addition to crystal violet, the medium gives improved differentiation between coliforms and non-lactose fermenting organisms while Gram-positive cocci are completely inhibited.
  • Easy-to-read: Escherichia coli (red colonies with bile precipitation) is easy to differentiate from Shigella spp. (straw coloured colonies) and Salmonella (Straw coloured colonies).
  • Recommended by the American Public Health Association
