MỤC ĐÍCH SỬ DỤNG

BacterTube™ Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) is primarily used for culturing and preserving fungi, including yeasts, molds, and other types of fungi. With its low pH, this medium helps inhibit bacterial growth, providing ideal conditions for fungal development. SDA is commonly used in microbiological experiments and clinical tests to identify pathogenic fungal strains, particularly in samples from skin, nails, or other environmental sources containing fungi.

NGUYÊN TẮC

Sabouraud Dextrose Agar is a peptone glucose medium enabling the growth of yeasts and molds.
The acid pH inhibits the majority of secondary flora.

Heat the loop’s tip until it becomes red in the flame, then lightly heat the handle of the loop, ensuring the loop is uniformly hot.
Inoculate the medium by gently placing the loop’s tip on the surface of the slant agar at the bottom of the tube.
Next, streak in a zigzag pattern from the bottom of the tube to the top along the surface of the slant..
Place the tube in the incubator under aerobic conditions at 35 – 37°C for 18 – 24 hours.

RESULTS

BacterLab ensures the quality of each product batch by testing with ATCC reference strains.
