Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

GranuCult^® prime Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) Agar is a nutrient rich complex medium that is designed to cultivate and maintain fastidious microorganisms from food and animal feed, water and other samples.This culture medium can be used as a general-purpose medium, it contains no inhibitors or dyes and a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi are able to grow on it. The highly nutritious substrate prepared from extracts of brain and heart, and peptones provide nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids and carbon sources. Glucose is an additional carbon source whilst disodium phosphate acts as a buffer. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance and agar is the solidifying agent.

Anwendung

GranuCult^® prime Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) Agar is a nutrient rich complex medium.
Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar poured in slants is used for maintenance of pure cultures of microorganisms.

Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar is less suited for identifying hemolytic forms when blood has been added due to its glucose content.

According to APHA Compendium of Methods for microbiological examination of foods, BHI agar may be supplemented with vancomycin for the selective screening of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) from food samples
