Bismuth Sulfite Glucose Glycine Yeast (BiGGY) Agar, also known as Nickerson Medium, is a selective and non-differential medium used for the detection, isolation, and presumptive identification of Candida species. Many strains of yeast, including Candida, reduce bismuth sulfite. During this process, significant amounts of sulfide are produced and combine with the bismuth to precipitate or impart a brown-black color to the colonies on the medium. Bismuth sulfite also serves to suppress bacterial growth.• Product pH will decrease.
