摘要：

An important problem in water quality control is the ability to differentiate between E. coli (faecal) and A. aerogenes (non-faecal) coliforms. To perform this differentiation, a simple test, based on a modification of the selective mFC medium and optimal incubation temperature (37°C) is proposed. Under these specific conditions E. coli bacteria develop into dark blue colonies, whereas A. aerogenes into pink ones. The intermediate coliform bacteria appear greenish-blue or pink, depending on their relation (closeness) to E. coli or A. aerogenes. © 1969.
