For adipogenic differentiation, medium was changed into adipogenic
differential medium A (purchased from Cyagen Biosciences Inc., USA) for induction when the cultures reached full confluence.
Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages over other conventional techniques like diffusion method are still available and routinely used.8 CHRO-Magar (CMRSA) is a selective and
differential medium used for early detection of MRSA within 24 hrs from clinical specimens including nasal, peri-anal swabs and sputum.9 MRSA strains grow in the presence of antibiotic (cefoxitin) and after hydrolysis of chromogenic substrate produces blue colored colonies.
Development of an improved selective and
differential medium for isolation of Salmonella spp.
Potassium tellurite medium, serves as a selective and
differential medium for Cornyebacterium sp.
XLD Agar is both a selective and
differential medium. It utilizes sodium desoxycholate as the selective agent and, therefore, it is inhibitory to gram-positive microorganisms.
Further support is provided with the inclusion in the range of semi-solid MSRV Medium for the rapid detection of motile Salmonellae; Diassalm, a semi solid
differential medium for the isolation of Salmonella spp.
CIVA agar is a selective as well as
differential medium. Presence of vancomycin (10 mg/l), amphotericin B (4.5 mg/1) and ceftazidime (2 [micro]g/ml) suppresses the Gram positive bacteria, yeast and ceftazidime susceptible organism respectively.
A new selective
differential medium for isolation of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia.
