Agar mycologique EO Labs (25 ml) - plaques de 10 x 90 mm

A selective medium for the isolation of fungi, particularly dermatophytes from clinical specimens, mycological agar is suitable for use in all areas of mycology. The medium inhibits most bacteria due to the addition of chloramphenicol which is added to reduce the risk of bacterial contamination when processing material that may be heavily contaminated particularly with Coliforms. Cycloheximide is also added to suppress the growth of yeasts and saprophytic fungi.
