Potato Dextrose Agar
High-Quality Agar for Fungal Isolation and Cultivation
IBIās Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) is a widely trusted microbiological medium formulated for the isolation, identification, and cultivation of fungi, including yeasts and molds. This versatile agar is ideal for researchers, microbiologists, and quality control professionals working in food safety, clinical diagnostics, and pharmaceutical environments.
Potato Dextrose Agar is especially effective for cultivating fungi from a wide range of sources, including dairy products, plant materials, and other food substances. By supporting the robust growth of a variety of fungal species, it plays a critical role in microbial testing protocols and environmental monitoring.
Acidified Formula to Suppress Bacterial Growth
The formulation can be acidified to a pH of 3.5 Ā± 0.1, which significantly inhibits bacterial growth while promoting the selective isolation of fungi. This pH adjustment makes it particularly useful for applications where pure fungal cultures are required, especially in environments that may otherwise be contaminated with bacterial flora.
Storage Instructions: For optimal performance, store the Potato Dextrose Agar at room temperature (below 30ā°C). Keep the product tightly sealed and protect it from moisture and light to maintain its integrity and shelf life.
Whether you're analyzing contamination in food samples or cultivating specific fungal strains in the lab, IBIās high-quality agar formulation delivers consistent and reliable results.
