Product Description

Detect, isolate and enumerate yeasts and molds with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Malt Extract Agar (Dehydrated). Mycological peptone in the medium gives a luxuriant growth of yeasts and molds with typical morphology and pigmentation.

Malt Extract Agar is similar to the formula of Galloway and Burgess1 used for the detection, isolation, and enumeration of yeasts and molds. For mycological counts, it may be desirable to prepare the more acid medium in order to suppress bacterial growth.
