Lachica R
Appl Environ Microbiol
. 1996 Nov;
62(11):4293-5.
PMID: 8984907
Identification of 12 strains originally characterized as nonpathogenic Listeria monocytogenes was reassured following the evaluation of their hemolytic capability with a newly developed horse blood agar plate. Seven of the...

Bhaduri S, Lachica R
J Clin Microbiol
. 1991 Oct;
29(10):2341-4.
PMID: 1939595
A simple, efficient method for identification and differentiation of Yersinia enterocolitica containing virulent plasmid-bearing clones is described. The method is based on temperature of incubation and the low calcium response...

Bhaduri S, Taylor M, Lachica R
J Clin Microbiol
. 1990 Apr;
28(4):798-800.
PMID: 2332473
A simplified procedure to detect the calcium dependency of virulent plasmid-bearing strains of Yersinia enterocolitica was developed. A low-calcium, agarose-based medium of brain heat infusion with added magnesium effectively differentiated...

Appl Environ Microbiol
. 1990 Apr;
56(4):1164-5.
PMID: 2187403
The Henry oblique transmitted-light viewing technique was modified to provide a more precise, convenient, and familiar manner with which to read (score) and recognize colonies of listeriae by their distinct...

Lachica R
Appl Environ Microbiol
. 1990 Apr;
56(4):1166-8.
PMID: 2111113
A diagnostic scheme is described for the same-day identification of food-borne cells of Listeria monocytogenes that emerge in 40 h at 30 degrees C as large colonies, representatives of which...

Lachica R
Appl Environ Microbiol
. 1990 Jan;
56(1):167-9.
PMID: 2106825
A new plating medium (lithium chloride-ceftazidime agar [LCA]) was designed to quantitatively recover food-borne Listeria monocytogenes in the form of large colonies while inhibiting most other food-borne microorganisms. This medium...

Bhaduri S, Conway L, Lachica R
J Clin Microbiol
. 1987 Jun;
25(6):1039-42.
PMID: 3597748
A rapid, reliable, and simple method based on the binding of crystal violet (CV) is described for differentiating virulence-plasmid-bearing strains of Yersinia enterocolitica from their plasmidless derivatives. As with other...

Egg yolk-free Baird-Parker medium for the accelerated enumeration of foodborne Staphylococcus aureus
Lachica R
Appl Environ Microbiol
. 1984 Oct;
48(4):870-1.
PMID: 6542337
A simplified procedure is described for the accelerated enumeration of foodborne Staphylococcus aureus. This involves the replacement of egg yolk in the Baird-Parker medium with Tween 80 and MgCl2. These...

Infect Immun
. 1984 Oct;
46(1):272-5.
PMID: 6480110
Electron microscopic examination of virulence plasmid-bearing cells of Yersinia enterocolitica revealed the formation of a fibril structure when grown at 37 degrees C but not at 22 degrees C. Plasmidless...
