New selective and differential media were devised for the isolation and identification of Streptococcus suis type 2. The selective medium (NNCC) agar) was Todd-Hewitt broth containing 1.5% Bactoagar and 5% defibrinated sheep blood with addition of sodium azide (50 micrograms/ml), nalidixic acid (25 micrograms/ml), colistin (12.5 micrograms/ml) and crystal violet (2 micrograms/ml). The differential medium consisted of heart infusion agar and antiserum specific only for S. suis type 2. In a total of 291 pigs tested by a combination of these media, S. suis type 2 was isolated and confirmed from 40 of them (13.7%).
