[TMOSKOVHE COMPARATIVE CHARACTERISTIC OF GROWTH MEDIUMS FOR SEPARATION OF CORYNEBACTERIA].
    Klinicheskaia laboratornaia diagnostika, 2016, Volume: 61, Issue:1

    The comparative tests of growth mediums for isolation and accumulation of diphtheria bacteria were implemented. The testing consisted of six series of growth medium "Corynebacagar" produced by the state research center of applied microbiology and biotechnology and three series of blood tellurite agar. The concluding results of identification of biological indicators of all series of growth nutrient mediums are presented The "Corynebacagar" is recommended for application in health care practice for primary inoculation of pathological material during implementation of cultural analysis on diphtheria.

Tellurite resistance: a putative pitfall in Corynebacterium diphtheriae diagnosis?
    Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2015, Volume: 108, Issue:5

    Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains continue to circulate worldwide causing diphtheria and invasive diseases, such as endocarditis, osteomyelitis, pneumonia and catheter-related infections. Presumptive C. diphtheriae infections diagnosis in a clinical microbiology laboratory requires a primary isolation consisting of a bacterial culture on blood agar and agar containing tellurite (TeO3(2-)). In this study, nine genome sequenced and four unsequenced strains of C. diphtheriae from different sources, including three samples from a recent outbreak in Brazil, were characterized with respect to their growth properties on tellurite-containing agar. Levels of tellurite-resistance (Te(R)) were evaluated by determining the minimum inhibitory concentrations of potassium tellurite (K2TeO3) and by a viability reduction test in solid culture medium with K2TeO3. Significant differences in Te(R) levels of C. diphtheriae strains were observed independent of origin, biovar or presence of the tox gene. Data indicated that the standard initial screening with TeO3(2-)-selective medium for diphtheria bacilli identification may lead to false-negative results in C. diphtheriae diagnosis laboratories.
