EUGONIC LT 100 MEDIUM BASE W/O TWEEN 80

Eugonic LT 100 Medium Base was developed by Pelczar and Vera for cultivation of fastidious organisms like Brucella. Eugon media were developed to obtain eugonic (luxuriant) growth of fastidious microorganisms like Brucella which are otherwise difficult to cultivate. The unenriched medium supports rapid growth of lactobacilli associated with cured meat products, dairy products and other foods. Eugonic media is quite similar to Tryptone Soya Agar but more bacterial propagation is expected on Eugonic media. Organisms like Bordetella and Neisseria form minute colonies on Tryptone Soya Agar. They may become large on Eugon Media because large amount of sulfur and carbon sources have been added in addition to the Tryptone Soya Agar formula. Eugonic LT 100 Medium w/o Tween 80 can be used for growth of a variety of fastidious microorganisms like Neisseria, Francisella and Brucella.

for the cultivation of fastidious microorganisms like Haemophilus, Neissaria, Pasturella, Brucella and Lactobacillus species
