Description

Isolate and cultivate Gram-positive cocci, such as staphylococci and streptococci, from specimens containing mixed flora with this selective medium.

Isolate and cultivate Gram-positive cocci, such as staphylococci and streptococci, from specimens containing mixed flora1 with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Phenylethyl Alcohol Agar with 5% Sheep Blood. This medium permits the growth of Gram-positive organisms while inhibiting most Gram-negative organisms, especially the swarming of Proteus species.

Phenylethyl Alcohol Agar with 5% Sheep Blood is formulated as per Lilley and Brewer1 for selective isolation of Gram-positive bacteria. This medium is especially useful when specimens are contaminated with swarming Proteus species.

  • Selective: phenylethyl alcohol in the medium inhibits Gram-negative organisms by inhibiting their DNA synthesis.
  • Ready-to-use: convenience of prepared media.
