Description
Grow a wide variety of pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria with general purpose Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Blood Agar Base (Dehydrated). Without any additions, the medium can be used for short-term maintenance of stock cultures. With added serum and other enrichments, the medium is suitable for cultivation of many fastidious organisms. With the addition of blood, the medium becomes suitable for the determination of hemolytic reactions which are important diagnostic criteria for many organisms.
Blood Agar Base is a highly nutritious medium generally used as a basal medium for preparing blood agar by the addition of blood. It can also be used as general purpose medium without the addition of blood.
Blood Agar Base was used during investigations on irradiated Escherichia coli and other bacteria1,2. It was the most suitable medium for investigating the phages of Clostridium perfringens3 and as the basis of a selective medium for Clostridium perfringens4. It was used with added phenolphthalein phosphate for the detection of phosphatase-producing staphylococci5 and with added salt and agar for the assessment of surface contamination on equipment and pig carcasses6. It has been used for determining the salinity range of growth of marine flavobacteria7.
