NOTE 1 T e reco nition of colonies of Salmo ela is, to a larg e tent, a mat er of e perience an their
ap e rance can vary somewhat, not only from serovar t o serovar, but also from b tch to b t ch of the selective

Alt ernatively, if wel-isolat ed colonies (of a pur cultur ) ar a ai a le on the sele tive plating media
(9.4), the biochemical confirmation can be pe formed dir ctly on a suspe t, wel-isolat ed colony
from the sele tive plating medium The cultur st ep on the non-sele tive a ar medium can then be
