Key Features & Benefits:
- Complete Formulation: Contains Chloramphenicol pre-added to the base. No need for separate antibiotic preparation or aseptic addition, reducing the risk of contamination during media prep.
- Selective Enrichment: Specifically designed to suppress bacterial growth while promoting fungal proliferation, ideal for samples with mixed flora.
- Liquid Format (Broth): Perfect for most probable number (MPN) techniques, sterility testing, and growing fungal suspensions for downstream applications.
- Standardized Composition: Consistent formula ensures reliable and reproducible results in qualitative and quantitative assays.
