I love your whole series of videos, markmicrobiology (& friends!). They are so informative, yet so "brief", that they really help study, and bear repeated watching very well. Thank you. Question on this particular video: When do "you guys" use the Campy plates? Every incoming stool specimen?
E. coli 0157H7 is indeed a member of the enterobacteriaceae, it is pathogenic and ferments lactose. However it does not ferment sorbitol well like the other E. coli, and can therefore be differentiated on Sorbitol-MacConkey agar (lactose is replaced by sorbitol).
0157H7 is colorless on Sorbitol-MacConkey agar. It produces shiga-like toxin via a bacteriophage. Shigella produces shiga-toxin from a defective bacteriophage that is chromosomal.
The Zofran mouse pad is a nice touch, while talking about all these organisms that can make you sick to the stomach :-)
This helps a lot! Thank you for posting!
Yes, Dan, the lab tests for Campylobacter in each stool specimen. They also test for Salmonella, Shigella, E. coli 0157 and Shiga toxin.

Lol...I can hear the walkaway in the background. That sound never gets old haha
thank u so much
useful information, thanks
This has really helped me with my lab report
do we use all these media in the same time for every stool specimen!
or is it specific?
That yellow color is indicated as normal flora on xld . A simple note to know
how do you enrich stool culture sir
is E.coli o157h7 , lactose non fermenter and it is pathogeic? is E.coli o157h7 one of the member enterobacteriaceae?

is E.coli 0157H7 does not ferment sorbital and it is coloress colony?
is e.coli 0157H7 prdoucing shiga toxin by serotype method?

well done
My sir
I love stool!!
