DICHLORAN GLYCEROL MEDIUM BASE

Product Code TM 981

  • Description

    Dichloran Glycerol Medium was formulated by Hocking and Pitt and is recommended for isolation and enumeration of xerophilic moulds from dried and semidried foods. The glycerol at 18% (w/w) lowers the water activity (aw) from 0.999 to 0.95 without causing any problem. This restrictive characteristic makes the medium especially suitable for foods. This medium can also be used for isolation of fungi from clinical samples.
