General description
Malt Extract Agar Contact - RT is designed for environmental monitoring in the non-critical area for the detection of yeasts and molds.
Malt Extract Agar is used for the detection of yeasts and molds. The pH of 5.4 - 5.8 of the medium promotes the growth of most yeasts and fungi, while bacterial growth is more or less inhibited. Malt extract has a high content of carbohydrates (90-92 %), nitrogen compounds, and vitamins, e.g., riboflavin, pyridoxin, and thiamine. The soymeal peptone is also rich in carbohydrates, and additionally supplies the necessary protein compounds such as peptides and amino acids.
