BD 221271 BBL Plate Mannitol Salt Agar
The BD 221271 BBL Plate, Mannitol Salt Agar, is a high-quality microbiological growth medium designed for use in clinical, research, and industrial laboratory settings. This product is specifically intended for the isolation and identification of Staphylococci, particularly Staphylococcus aureus, from various sample types. Its standout benefit lies in its ability to selectively inhibit the growth of most gram-negative bacteria and many gram-positive bacteria other than Staphylococci, making it an essential tool for microbiological testing and analysis.
Overview: The BD 221271 BBL Plate, Mannitol Salt Agar, serves as a selective and differential medium for the cultivation of Staphylococci. The mannitol salt agar composition provides a high salt concentration that inhibits the growth of most bacteria, while the pH indicator allows for the differentiation of Staphylococci based on their ability to ferment mannitol. This product is supplied in a convenient plate format, ready for use in a variety of laboratory applications.
