Description

Selectively isolate pathogenic Vibrio species with Thermo Scientific™ TCBS (Thiosulfate Citrate Bile Salts Sucrose) Cholera Medium. The medium has shown to be the most satisfactory and reproducible formula regardless of the complex composition1.

Unlike Lauryl Sulphate Tellurite Agar it does not require further additives or aseptic additions of blood. It also possesses superior growth characteristics for Vibrio species, compared with tellurite media.

While inhibiting non-vibrios, it promotes rapid growth of pathogenic vibrios after overnight incubation at 35°C.

Use TCBS Cholera Medium for selective isolation of pathogenic vibrios.

  • Produces reproducible results.
  • No need for additives or aseptic additions of blood.
  • Promotes rapid growth of pathogenic vibrios.
  • Ready-to-use convenience of prepared media.

The TCBS medium conforms to the formulation of Kobayashi et al., except that it contains specially processed ox bile, free from the defects noted by Nakanishi and Kobayashi2.
