E. coli and Salmonella are easily distinguishable due to the colony characteristics. Salmonella give light purple colonies with a halo. E. coli have a characteristic blue color. Other organisms give colorless colonies. The characteristic light purple and blue color is due to the chro- mogenic mixture. Chromogenic medium for detecting and identifying Enterobacteria, Proteus species, and other Gram-positive organisms.
