Descripción

General description

Sabouraud Dextrose Agar - ICR in 90 mm settle plates (non-lockable) is designed for the determination of the total count of yeasts and molds in air via active or passive air monitoring as well as fingerprints of personnel in isolators and clean rooms. Sabouraud Dextrose Medium contains digests of animal tissues (peptones) which provide a nutritious source of amino acids and nitrogenous compounds for the growth of fungi and yeasts. The high concentration of Dextrose in addition with the low pH promotes the growth, the formation of spores (conidia and sporangia) as well as the formation of pigments of yeasts and molds. On the other side these conditions suppress the growth of bacteria. The medium is supplemented with pyruvate in order to provide an efficient neutralization of residues of hydrogen peroxide

Application

Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) is a complex medium for cultivation and isolation of yeasts and molds. The media finds its application in environmental monitoring by determining the yeast and mold count in air through active or passive air monitoring as well as fingerprints of personnel in isolators and clean rooms.
