Product Overview
A medium recommended by the Harmonized USP/EP/JP for the isolation and identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, in non- sterile pharmaceutical samples. Conforms to USP/EP/JP performance specification. Gelatin is a source of nitrogen while glycerol acts as a carbon source. Cetrimide is a quaternary ammonium compound that inhibits the growth of a wide range of Gram-positive and some Gram-negative micro-organisms. Magnesium chloride and Dipotassium sulphate improve the production of pyoverdin and pyocyanin pigments that combine to give Pseudomonas aeruginosa characteristic green colonies. According to the Harmonized USP/EP/JP, subculture is carried out onto the medium after enrichment in Casein Soya Bean Digest Broth.
Typical Formulation Pancreatic Digest of Gelatin 20.0 g/L Magnesium Chloride 1.4 g/L Dipotassium Sulfate 10.0 g/L Cetrimide 0.3 g/L Agar 13.6 g/L pH: 7.2 ± 0.2 at 25°C Formula may be adjusted and/or supplemented as required to meet performance specifications.
