This is important because gut bacteria, such as Escherichia coli , can typically ferment lactose, while important gut pathogens, such as Salmonella enterica and most shigellas are unable to ferment lactose. Shigella sonnei can ferment lactose, but only after prolonged incubation, so it is referred to as a late lactose fermenter . During fermentation of the sugar, acid is formed and the pH of the medium drops, changing the color of the pH indicator. Different formulations use different indicators neutral red is often used. For example, lactose fermenters turn a deep red when this pH indicator is used. Those bacteria unable to ferment lactose, often referred to as nonlactose fermenters , or NLFs for short, use the peptone in the medium. This releases ammonia, which raises the pH of the medium. Although some authors refer to NLFs as being colourless, in reality they turn neutral red a buffish color. E. coli O157 H7 E. coli O157 H7 differs from most other strains of E. coli in being unable to ferment sorbitol . In sorbitolMacConkeyagar, lactose is replaced by sorbitol. Most strains of E. coli ferment sorbitol to produce acid E. coli O157 H7 can not ferment sorbitol, so this strain uses peptone to grow. This raises the pH of the medium, allowing the O157 H7 strain to be differentiated ... more details

MacConkey, the son of a West Derby minister, studied medicine at Cambridge and Guy s Hospital . He initially went into private practice at Beckenham, Kent, but decided to specialize in bacteriology, joining the bacteriology department at Guy s Hospital in 1897. He became an assistant bacteriologist serving the Royal Commission on Sewage Disposal in Liverpool, where he developed the culture medium which bears his name, and later transferred to the Lister Institute.

It was named after William Agar, a wealthy lawyer who lived at Elm Lodge, a villa in large grounds near to the Regent s Canal roughly where Barker Drive is now. Agar Town consisted of low quality housing for poor people, built of the lowest quality materials on 21 year lease s, and was generally considered a slum . The neighbourhood was started in 1841 with Agar s widow leasing out small plots on the north side of the canal. Ownership passed to the Church Commissioners, who sold it to the Midland Railway . The company demolished most of the housing to make way for warehouses supplying St Pancras railway station from 1866.

Uses It is particularly useful for the isolation of organisms that cause bacilliary dysentery , salmonella strains that cause food poisoning and salmonella paratyphi Salmonella Paratyphi . It is not so selective for Salmonella Typhi. This growth medium is inhibitory to most gut bacteria, in particular species of the genus Proteus bacterium Proteus , although these species do survive on DCA agar. It is therefore essential that suspected pathogens must be subcultured on a less inhibitory medium prior to identification. Salmonella spp appear to be yellow or colourless colonies, often with a dark centre. As there are many bacteria that also look like Salmonella on DCA, it is widely recommended that more selective agars are used for the identification of Salmonella , namely xylose lysine deoxycholate XLD agar. This growth medium is heat sensitive and should be poured and cooled as soon as possible after addition of the deoxycholate, otherwise it tends to become very soft and difficult to handle. It has a pH of approximately 7.3, and when poured and cooled, appears light to dark pink in colour.
