Use Oxytetracycline Glucose Yeast Extract Agar for selection and enumeration of yeasts and molds from foodstuffs.
• Increased colony count of yeasts and molds compared to that of low pH media.
• Improved recovery of physically stressed yeast cells.The choice of suitable medium for enumeration of yeast and moulds is greatly dependent on the nature of the foodstuffs under investigation and the organisms that occur on them^5. Oxytetracycline Glucose Yeast Extract Agar Base remains bacteriostatic when inoculated with not greater than 1 mL of a 10^-1dilution of foods and subsequently incubated for not greater than 5 days at 25°C as is the customary practice in food mycology^2.For isolation of psychrotrophic yeasts from chilled proteinaceous foods a combination of oxytetracycline and gentamicin is effective^6.Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
