Blood agar medium

Manufactured by HiMedia
Sourced in India

Blood agar medium is a type of microbiological culture medium used for the isolation and identification of bacteria. It consists of a base agar medium supplemented with defibrinated sheep or horse blood. The blood agar medium supports the growth of a wide range of bacteria and provides information about their hemolytic properties.

Collection and Identification of A. baumannii

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A. baumannii were collected from clinical samples, over a six-month period (December 2021 to June 2022). The specimens included respiratory, blood, wounds, burns, surgery, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples obtained from hospitalized patients in three hospitals in the province of Isfahan (Al-Zahra, Amin, and Milad). These samples were cultured on MacConkey agar and blood agar medium (HiMedia, India) and then were incubated for 24 hours at 37°C. Gram staining and biochemical testing were used to identify the pure strains [17 (link)].

Soil Microbial Diversity in Nepal

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This study was carried out in Central Campus of Technology Hattisar Dharan and Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS) Tarhara from October 2018 to March 2019. Soil samples were collected from different altitudes ranging from Itahari (374 ft.), Tarhara (418 ft.), Dharan (1272 ft.) and Vedetar (5140 ft.) of Koshi Zone, Nepal. From each geographical region 25 different soil samples were collected and in total 100 different soil samples from four regions were collected. Soil samples weighing 10gm was collected in sterile plastic bags from 3-5cm depth and transported into the laboratory at 4°C. Materials used in this experiment were Sodium acetate (HiMedia, India), Lauria Bertani (LB) broth (HiMedia, India). Nutrient Agar (HiMedia, India), Coomassie brilliant blue (HiMedia, India), Phosphate buffer saline (HiMedia, India), Grams staining reagents (HiMedia, India), MR-VP medium and reagents (HiMedia, India), Indole medium (HiMedia, India), Citrate agar medium (HiMedia, India), Gelatin agar medium (HiMedia, India), Starch agar medium (HiMedia, India), Egg yolk agar medium (HiMedia, India), Blood agar medium (HiMedia, India), Carbohydrate fermentation broth (HiMedia, India), SIM medium (HiMedia, India), Triple sugar iron agar (HiMedia, India).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
