Xylose Lysine Desoxycholate Agar, also known as Shigella Agar, is a selective and differential medium used for the isolation and identification of Shigella species in clinical and food samples. This agar contains specific nutrients that allow for the growth of Shigella bacteria while inhibiting the growth of other organisms, making it a valuable tool in microbiology laboratories.
