Contact Sabouraud With Chloramphenicol (SDCA) + Neutralizers (RTU)
Sabouraud with Chloramphenicol Agar, supplemented with neutralizers, is a ready-to-use media. The media is used for the detection and enumeration of microorganisms present on surfaces by impression on agar to control critical points in industry (examples: protected areas, microbiological monitoring programs of surfaces and industrial environments).
Available as ready-to-use medium : 20 plates of Ø 65mm
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.
The media forms a convex meniscus that allows the direct application of the agar on the control areas, whether on walls, floors, utensils or staff. The media contains several neutralizers that inhibit disinfectant residues that may be present on the surfaces to be monitored, in order to assess the levels of contamination before and after disinfection of the food chain environment.
The neutralizers are selected to inactivate residues of disinfectants that may be present on surfaces, such as aldehydes and phenols, quaternary ammoniums, oxidizing compounds.
Peptic meat peptone is the nitrogenous source of growth. Glucose is an energy source.
In addition, chloramphenicol, a thermostable antibiotic with a broad antibacterial spectrum, inhibits the growth of contaminating microflora. The acidic pH promotes the growth of yeasts and molds.
