Thiosulfate Citrate Bile Salts Sucrose (TCBS) Agar is a highly selective medium designed for the isolation and differentiation of Vibrio species, particularly Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus, from clinical, food, and environmental samples.
The selective formulation of TCBS Agar inhibits the growth of most non-Vibrio organisms, while sucrose fermentation allows differentiation between Vibrio species — V. cholerae produces yellow colonies, and V. parahaemolyticus forms green to blue-green colonies.
These pre-poured 90mm plates are ready to use, providing consistent, reliable results and saving valuable preparation time in the laboratory.
Features:
Selective medium for isolation of Vibrio species, including V. cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus
Differential color reactions for easy identification
Ready-to-use 90mm plates ensure convenience and uniform quality
Ideal for food, water, clinical, and environmental microbiology testing
Supplied in packs of 10
Manufactured to high quality standards for dependable performance
Storage Conditions:
Store at 2–8°C. Protect from light. Do not freeze.
