Candida elective agar

Candida Elektivagar is a highly specific ready-to-use culture medium for microbiology, specially developed for the isolation and orienting differentiation of fungi of the genus Candida and other yeasts. This culture medium is based on a unique combination of yeast extract, glycine and glucose as a nutrient base, which creates optimal growth conditions for Candida and other yeasts. What particularly distinguishes Candida Elektivagar is the use of the "bismuth sulphite indicator", which enables extensive inhibition of the accompanying flora. This allows Candida and most other yeasts to develop unhindered, while at the same time inhibiting the accompanying flora. This leads to a higher purity of the cultures and better differentiation of the various yeast strains. Another advantage of this culture medium is the characteristic reaction of Candida and other yeasts to the bismuth sulphite indicator. When the yeasts develop, they take on a brownish to black color, which enables clear identification and differentiation of the various yeast strains. Due to its highly specific composition and the clear reaction of the yeasts, Candida Elektivagar offers a reliable and efficient solution for the isolation and differentiation of Candida and other yeasts in microbiology laboratories and research facilities.
