Meat-Yeast Agar
BK006HA
CAD$151.55
Meat-Yeast Agar is used to enumerate spores of sulfite-reducing anaerobic bacteria in gelatin and other food products.
The typical composition corresponds to that defined in the standard NF V59-106.
Available in dehydrated medium : 500 g bottle.
In compliance with regulatory requirements, a USDA permit (VS 16-3) is mandatory for shipments from Canada to the USA due to the inclusion of peptone, an animal byproduct.
Tryptone and extracts of meat and yeast favor the development of cultures.
Glucose is the energy source for growth.
Starch favors spore germination.
Anaerobic bacteria reduce sulfite to sulfide, which in presence of ferric citrate causes the blackening of the colonies due to the formation of iron sulfide.
