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 .
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.

Neogen's (NEOG) Reveal 3-D safety test for checking peanut contamination in food items gets approval from the AOAC.
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.
Colonial morphology serves as the first step in the identification of microbial species from clinical samples. [10] Based on the visual appearance of the colonies, microbiologists can narrow down the list of possible organisms, allowing them to select appropriate tests to provide a definitive diagnosis.
Neogen's (NEOG) new test can detect cancer causing aflatoxin M1 in milk within a range of 150-600 parts per trillion (ppt). Neogen (NEOG) Launches Dairy Toxin Detection Test Reveal Q+ Skip to main ...
These tubes should be used with care when measuring drug or hormone levels because the drug or hormone may diffuse from the serum into the gel, causing a reduction in measured level. The gel in SST II tubes (which appears slightly less opaque) is supposed [weasel words] to have less effect on drug levels in serum. [citation needed]
