Features and Benefits |
- BD BBL Phenylethyl Alcohol Agar with 5% Sheep Blood is a selective medium for the isolation of gram-positive organisms, particularly gram-positive cocci, from specimens of mixed gram-positive and gram-negative flora
- The medium should not be used for determination of hemolytic reactions since atypical reactions may be observed
- BD BBL Phenylethyl Alcohol Agar with 5% Sheep Blood supports the growth of gram-positive bacterial species, due to its content of peptones, which supply nitrogen, carbon, sulfur and trace nutrients
- Ctn. of 100 plates
|
- Trypticase™ Soy Agar is a general purpose medium which supports the growth of a variety of bacteria and fungi
- Used for cultivating fastidious microorganisms and for visualization of hemolytic reactions produced by many bacterial species
|
- MacConkey II Agar, a specially-designed improvement to MacConkey Agar, features increased inhibition of swarming Proteus spp., superior growth of enteric organisms and more definitive differentiation of lactose fermenters and nonfermenters
- Macconkey agar is also used in the bam (bacteriological analytical manual) of the food and drug administration (fda) procedure for isolating e. coli from foods
- 100 Plates
|
- Mueller Hinton II Agar is used in the standardized disc diffusion procedure for determining the susceptibility of rapidly growing aerobic organisms to antimicrobial agents
|
- Saline, normal (physiological) is used in procedures that require the use of an isotonic diluent
- An isotonic diluent may be used for dilution of bacterial cells to provide a concentration suitable for microscopic observation, determination of cell numbers, analysis for genetic or metabolic properties, washing cells preparatory to study, or preparation of standardized inocula
- BD Mycoflask media are packaged in specially designed trays for ease in handling and incubation
