Descripción

Descripción general

GranuCult^® plus Rose-Bengal Chloramphenicol Agar is a selective agar for the enumeration of yeasts and molds in foodstuffs. The neutral pH in combination with chloramphenicol suppresses the growth of most bacteria. Rose-Bengal, taken up intracellular by fungi, restricts the size and the spreading of molds, preventing the overgrowth of slow-growing species by luxuriant species.

Aplicación

GranuCult^® plus Rose-Bengal Chloramphenicol Agar is suitable for the enumeration of yeasts and molds in foodstuffs, particularly proteinaceous food.
