Escheria coli serotype 0157:H7 is a recently re-cognized human pathogen associated with he-morrhagic colitis, hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Sorbitol Mac Conkey Agar Medium (SMAC) permitted ready re-cognition of E. Coll 0157:H7 in stool cultures. In this study the frequency of non sorbitol fer-menting organisms was investiageted in 919 stool cultures by using Sorhitol Mac Conkey Agar (SMAC) medium. 15 (1 .6%) Non sorbitol fermenting strains were isolated. 0157:H7 species could not be isolated. The other nonsorhitol fermenting colonies were 8(0.8%) non group E. coli 0157:H7, 6(0.6%). Proteus spp 1(0_1%) Pseudomonas spp.
