Description

Quantity: 500 g
Unit Size: Each
Serious infections due to Candida species are becoming increasingly prevalent. This poses particular problems because of the increasing incidence of non-albicans spp. and the emergence of non-albicans isolates resistant to both amphotericin B and the newer azoles^2. Use BiGGY Agar for isolation and identification of the Candida species.
• Selective: the presence of bismuth sulphite complex in the medium confers a high degree of selectivity to the medium, and most strains of bacteria are inhibited on BIGGY Agar.
• Can be used for the isolation and presumptive identification ofCandida albicansandCandida tropicalisfrom sputum^3,4and vaginal smears^5
• Recommended medium for the quality assessment of pharmaceutical and cosmetic products^6 Not all products are available for sale in all territories. Please inquire. Remel™ and Oxoid™ products are now part of the Thermo Scientific brand
