HiCrome™ Candida Differential Agar
Details
It is a selective and differential medium, which facilitates rapid isolation of yeasts from mixed cultures and allows differentiation of Candida species namely C.albicans, C.krusei, C.tropicalis and C.glabrata on the basis of colouration and colony morphology. Chloramphenicol suppresses the accompanying bacterial flora. C.albicans appear as light green coloured smooth colonies, C.tropicalis appear as blue to metallic blue coloured raised colonies. C.glabrata colonies appear as cream to white smooth colonies, while C.krusei appear as purple fuzzy colonies.
