Summary
Fish mediums B1 and B2, which modified King A base (B1) and modified King B base (B2) were examined for pigment production of P.aeruginosa strains and compared with King A and King B Mediums. Pyocyanin production on B1 was found better than on King A medium. Pyoverdin (Fluorescein) production on B2 was observed as a lighter yellow green than King B Medium. Fluorescence on B2 was recognized easier than King B Medium. As a result of this study, Fish Medium B1 and B2 can be used easily for examination of pigments of Pseudomonas strains. The other advantage of fish medium is, that, it can be produced easily in our country.
