OXOID
Oxoid™ Pseudomonas Cetrimide Agar (500g) is a highly selective medium designed for the isolation and identification of Pseudomonas species, particularly Pseudomonas aeruginosa, from clinical, environmental, and food samples. The medium contains cetrimide, a surfactant that inhibits the growth of most other bacteria while allowing Pseudomonas species to grow. Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces distinctive colonies on this agar, characterised by a blue-green pigmentation due to the production of pyocyanin, a water-soluble pigment.
