Use Eosin Methylene Blue Agar (Modified) Levine for isolation and differentiation of Enterobacterioceae.

  • Easy-to-read: due to Eosin–Y and methylene blue indicators Escherichia coli (purple colonies with green metallic sheen) are easy to differentiate from Enterobacteria aerogenes (purple mucoid colonies).
  • Recommended for the detection, enumeration, and differentiation of members of the coliform group by American Public Health Association.

Weld9,10 proposed the use of Eosin methylene blue agar (Modified) Levine, with added chlortetracycline hydrochloride for the rapid identification of Candida albicans in clinical materials. A positive identification of Candida albicans could be made after 24 to 48 hours incubation at 37°C in 10% carbon dioxide from feces, oral and vaginal secretions, and nail or skin scrapings.
