INTENDED USE
- BacterChrom™ Malassezia is a selective chromogenic medium designed for the detection and differentiation of Malassezia species, commonly found on the skin of animals. While harmless on healthy skin, Malassezia can cause skin diseases such as dermatitis or otitis when the skin environment is altered. This medium is suitable for analyzing samples from pets and livestock, including skin and ear specimens.
- The packaging with semi-permeable Cellophane film helps balance the humidity of the environment during storage.
PRINCIPLES
- BacterChrom™ Malassezia utilizes chromogenic substrates that interact with specific enzymatic activities of Malassezia species, resulting in distinct colony appearances for straightforward identification. The medium incorporates selective agents to suppress the growth of non-target organisms, ensuring high specificity and facilitating the differentiation of Malassezia from other microorganisms.
- Allow to warm to room temperature before inoculation, dry the plates in an incubator with the covers partially removed.
- Direct streaking sample onto the plate
- Incubate in aerobic conditions at 30 – 37°C for 72 hours
RESULTS
- Qualitative reading and interpretation of the plates:
| Microorganism | Typical colony apprearance |
| Malassezia furfur | large, pale pink and wrinkled |
| Other Malassezia species (including M. globosa & M. restricta) | mostly pink to purple |
| C. albicans | green |
| C. tropicalis | metallic blue + mauve halo |
| C. krusei | pink, fuzzy |
| Other yeast species | white to mauve |
BacterLab ensures the quality of each product batch by testing with ATCC and NCTC reference strains.
| Reference strains | Incubation conditions | Expected results |
| M. furfur ATCC 14521 | Incubate for 72 hours at 35 – 37 °C | Mauve colonies |
| C. albicans ATCC 10231 | Pale green colonies | |
| E. coli ATCC 35218 | Inhibited |
