PSEUDOMONAS AGAR BASE

Pseudomonas Agar Base is a modification of Kings A medium which contains magnesium chloride and potassium sulphate to enhance pigment production. Goto and Enomoto formulated CetriNix supplement for the selective isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from clinical specimens. Lowbury and Collins studied cetrimide as a selective agent. CetriNix supplement suppresses Klebsiella, Proteus and Providencia species.
C-F-C Supplement was formulated by Mead and Adams making the medium specific for isolation of Pseudomonas from chilled foods and processing plants, environmental samples and water. This medium is recommended for enumeration of Pseudomonas species from meat and meat products. It can also be used for clinical samples.
