General description

GranuCult® prime Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) Agar is a nutrient rich complex medium that is designed to cultivate and maintain fastidious microorganisms from food and animal feed, water and other samples.This culture medium can be used as a general-purpose medium, it contains no inhibitors or dyes and a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi are able to grow on it. The highly nutritious substrate prepared from extracts of brain and heart, and peptones provide nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids and carbon sources. Glucose is an additional carbon source whilst disodium phosphate acts as a buffer. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance and agar is the solidifying agent.

Application

GranuCult® prime Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) Agar is a nutrient rich complex medium.
Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar poured in slants is used for maintenance of pure cultures of microorganisms.

Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar is less suited for identifying hemolytic forms when blood has been added due to its glucose content.

According to APHA Compendium of Methods for microbiological examination of foods, BHI agar may be supplemented with vancomycin for the selective screening of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) from food samples

Other Notes

We offer two media types: the superior granulated GranuCult® and the cost-efficient powdered NutriSelect® culture media, depending on your needs.
The designations basic, plus, or prime are added to indicate the quality control level, from basic quality control to standard QC plus to prime for full regulatory compliance.
