Description
- Mueller Hinton Fastidious Agar (Horse blood 5 %, 20 mg/L β-NAD) is recommended by EUCAST for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Streptococcus spp (including S. pneumoniae), Haemophilus spp and several other fastidious organisms.
- Meat extract and casamino acids supply amino acids and other nitrogenous substances, minerals, vitamins, carbon and other nutrients to support the growth of microorganisms.
- Starch acts as a protective colloid against toxic substances that may be present in the medium, and hydrolysis of starch during autoclaving provides a small amount of glucose which is a source of energy.
- Agar is the solidifying agent.
- Horse blood and β-NAD are a further growth supplementation for fastidious microorganisms.
