  • Sabouraud Dextrose Agar with Lecithin, Tween 80, Histidine & Sodium Thiosulphate (VHP) (USP) - Irradiated This is a selective medium for the isolation of yeasts and fungi and is particularly suitable for use in sterility testing. The low pH (5.6) of the medium is inhibitory to most bacteria and many diagnostic features such as spores and pigmentation are well developed on this medium. The formulation of this medium conforms to the requirements of the United States Pharmacopoeia. Lecithin, Polysorbate 80 (Tween 80), Histidine and Sodium Thiosulphate are added to inactivate surface disinfectants (Lecithin neutralises quaternary ammonium compounds, Tween 80 and Histidine neutralises phenols, formalin, hexachlorophene and in combination with the Lecithin ethanol and Sodium Thiosulphate inactivate mercurials). This product is wrapped in barrier film to allow for use in Vaporised Hydrogen peroxide sterilisation systems. NB: Final sterilisation of this medium is by Gamma irradiation and it is triple wrapped. Dose Range: Min: 8.0kGy Max: 15.0kGy
  • This is a differential medium for the isolation of Escherichia coli 0157:H7. It differs from other MacConkey media in that lactose has been replaced by sorbitol. As Escherichia coli 0157:H7 does not ferment sorbitol, it produces pale translucent colonies whereas most other strains of Escherichia coli do ferment sorbitol and produce pink colonies.
  • This is a general-purpose complex medium for the cultivation and isolation of aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. The base medium, Tryptone Soya Agar (Soybean-Casein Digest agar), conforms to the Harmonized United States Pharmacopoeia (USP), European Pharmacopoeia (EP), and Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP).The medium can be incubated under aerobic or anaerobic conditions for sterility testing, air sampling and other areas of bacteriological investigation. This particular product is triple wrapped and terminally sterilised by Gamma irradiation. Dose Range: 8.0 kGy - 15.0kGy
  • This is a general-purpose complex medium for cultivation and isolation of fastidious bacteria, yeasts and moulds. The formulation is based on the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP Medium II) and European Pharmacopoeia (EP Medium B). The medium can be incubated under aerobic or anaerobic conditions for sterility testing, air sampling and other areas of bacteriological investigation. This product is wrapped in barrier film to allow for use in Vaporised Hydrogen peroxide sterilisation systems. This particular product is triple wrapped and terminally sterilised by Gamma irradiation. Dose Range: 8.0 kGy - 15.0kGy
