Thioglycollate without indicator, filtered (to remove dead bacteria), 10ml, 16x125mm tube, order by the package of 20, by Hardy Diagnostics For the cultivation of microorganisms. Filtered to remove all dead bacteria and debris. The last thing you want to see on your Gram Stain of sterile fluids is dead bacteria! Not from your specimen, but from your culture medium broth… Did you know that all powdered culture media contains bacteria that, although killed during the sterilization process, may show up as dead bacteria on your Gram stain? This is a possible cause of false positive reports. Hardy Diagnostics solves this problem by filtering its Thioglycollate before sterilization, leaving the medium clear, clean, and free from dead bacteria! Avoid false positives, and insist that your Thioglycollate be filtered. Filtered: 0.45 micron filter will remove dead bacteria from the medium Selection: Many different tubes sizes and fill volumes available Economical: Ask us for a price quote for large quantities Fast Delivery: Hardy Diagnostics maintains six distribution centers across the USA Comparable to: BD 221199 (20 per PK)

A 15 x 100mm biplate with one section for DTM (Dermatophyte Test Media) and the other section for RSM (Rapid Sporulation Media) for the culturing of hair, skin and nails for dermatophytes. DTM will turn red within a few days when a dermatophytic fungus is present. Dermatophytes include Trichophyton spp, Microsporum spp, and Epidermophyton spp. The RSM side will induce the organisms to produce spores (macroconidia) which can be viewed microscopically for identification. RSM is also useful for observing the true pigment formation of the colony. The media will turn blue to blue-green in the presence of dermatophytes. DTM tends to mask the coloration due to the intense red coloration. Also, DTM does not induce the rapid formation of spores. This is why the DTM/RSM makes a perfect combination for the identification of dermatophytic fungi. (10 per PK)
