Sabouraud Dextrose broth

Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (SDB) is a complex medium for cultivation and isolation of yeasts, molds, and dermatophytes. The high concentration of Dextrose and low pH promotes the growth of yeast and molds while inhibiting bacterial growth. The media also promotes the formation of spores (conidia and sporangia), as well as the formation of pigments of yeasts and molds.

Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (SDB) is used for the cultivation and isolation of yeasts, molds, and dermatophytes. The media is suitable for the microbiological examination of non-sterile products and the determination of the fungistatic activity of pharmaceutical products.

Our ready to use media provide the highest level of quality and testing confidence. They have been formulated and tested to meet the pharmacopoeia requirements. Our media are manufactured in an ISO 9001, environmentally controlled production center. Each lot undergoes a stringent quality control (QC) procedure, including pH, sterility and growth promotion tests. Our manufacturing approach ensures the highest level of clarity for our media and rinsing fluids, therefore improving accuracy and significantly reducing the risk of incorrect interpretation and false results.
