DTM plate on the right showing color change after two days' growth; Microsporum canis Dermatophyte test medium (DTM) is a specialized agar used in medical mycology. [1] [2] It is based on Sabouraud's dextrose agar with added cycloheximide to inhibit saprotrophic growth, antibiotic to inhibit bacterial growth, and phenol red a pH indicator.
Buffered charcoal yeast extract (BCYE) agar is a selective growth medium used to culture or grow certain types of bacteria, particularly the Gram-negative species Legionella pneumophila. [1] It has also been used for the laboratory diagnosis of Acanthamoeba keratitis , [ 2 ] Francisella and Nocardia spp .
The Neogen Petrifilm plate is an all-in-one plating system made by the Food Safety Division of the Neogen Corporation.They are heavily used in many microbiology-related industries and fields to culture various micro-organisms and are meant to be a more efficient method for detection and enumeration compared to conventional plating techniques.
Neogen's (NEOG) Reveal 3-D safety test for checking peanut contamination in food items gets approval from the AOAC.
Neogen's (NEOG) new quantitative test shows a high level of specificity to very low levels of cashew protein (down to 0.2 ppm).
An agar plate – an example of a bacterial growth medium*: Specifically, it is a streak plate; the orange lines and dots are formed by bacterial colonies.. A growth medium or culture medium is a solid, liquid, or semi-solid designed to support the growth of a population of microorganisms or cells via the process of cell proliferation [1] or small plants like the moss Physcomitrella patens.

The urease agar slant is used to measure an organism’s ability to produce urease, an enzyme capable to digesting urea in carbon dioxide and ammonia through hydrolysis. Because ammonia is alkaline, the media contains phenol red, an indicator that changes from orange to pink when a pH increases above 8.1.
De Man–Rogosa–Sharpe agar, often abbreviated to MRS, is a selective culture medium designed to favour the luxuriant growth of Lactobacilli for lab study. Developed in 1960, this medium was named for its inventors, Johannes Cornelis de Man [ Wikidata ] , Morrison Rogosa [ Wikidata ] , and Margaret Elisabeth Sharpe [ Wikidata ] .
