Improved TSA blood plates which produce luxuriant growth of pathogens Streptococci and larger zones of haemolysis to aid in detection. 

for cultivation of fastidious microorganisms and determination of haemolytic activity

Isolation of Neisseriae and Haemophilus spp.

Susceptibility testing of fastidious microorganims according to CLSI specifications

Highly selective culture media that inhibits competitive Gram negative flora, improved with growth factors that assure a luxuriant growth of anaerobic microorganisms.

Brucella Agar is used for the cultivation of Brucella spp. and other fastidious microorganisms in a laboratory setting. Brucella Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans

Isolation of Bordetella pertussis

Selective agar for detection of Streptococcus pneumonia

For susceptibility testing for Neisseria gonorrhoeae

TSA + 5% sheep blood supplemented with yeast extract, hemin, vitamin K1 and L-cystine. Non-selective blood agar for primary isolation of ALL anaerobes found in clinica, including the most fastidious (Bac. melaninogenicus, F. necrophorum).

TSA+5% sheep blood supplemented with yeast extract, hemin, Vit K1, and L-cystine. Selective for pathogenic anarobes in clinica.

Selective isolation of Gram positive bacteria from mixed flora (anaerobic bacteria)

Highly selective culture media that inhibits competitive Gram negative flora, improved with growth factors that assure a luxuriant growth of anaerobic microorganisms.

Brucella Agar is used for the cultivation of Brucella spp. and other fastidious microorganisms in a laboratory setting. Brucella Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans

For the isolation of more fastidious microorganisms to which the addition of special inhibitors (Colistin and Nalidixic Acid) make it highly selective for Gram positive-cocci, Staphylococci and Streptococci, particularly when Gram negative bacilli (e.g. Proteus) are present and tend to overgrow on conventional blood agar plates.

Selective isolation of H.pylori

For the isolation of more fastidious microorganisms to which the addition of special inhibitors (Colistin and Nalidixic Acid) make it highly selective for Gram positive-cocci, Staphylococci and Streptococci, particularly when Gram negative bacilli (e.g. Proteus) are present and tend to overgrow on conventional blood agar plates.

A highly selective medium with a mixture of six antibacterial agents that inhibits growth of competitive enterobacterial agents and allows growth of all Campylobacter strains in a micro-aerophilic environment.

A selective enriched medium for the isolation of haemolytic Streptococcus from throat swabs and other clinical specimens. It favors growth of Beta haemolytic Streptococci ensuring luxuriant growth of the most fastidious microorganisms within 24 hours at 37oC (anaerobically) while the absolutely unique combination of microbial agents contained in the medium inhibits Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria except for Beta – haemolytic Streptococci which are not affected, and can be differentiated by their typical haemolytic reaction. A zone of growth inhibition around a bacitracin (0.04 units) disc allows the specific differentiation of group A Beta haemolytic Streptococci.
