Cetrimide Agar

Cetrimide Agar for Selective Isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a high-performance selective culture medium designed for microbiology laboratory testing, pathogen detection, and clinical microbiology analysis. This advanced Cetrimide Agar medium enables precise selective isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, supporting reliable identification in clinical diagnostics, pharmaceutical quality control, cosmetic contamination testing, and environmental microbiology workflows. It is widely used in microbial growth media, selective bacterial culture, and bacteriological testing media applications.

The optimized formulation of this selective agar medium contains cetrimide for inhibition of non-target organisms, magnesium chloride for pyocyanin production, potassium sulfate for enhanced metabolic activity, and gelatin digest for nutrient support. These components ensure strong and selective growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa while suppressing competing bacteria such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus, making it ideal for pathogen isolation media and laboratory microbiology testing kits.

Preparation is simple: dissolve 45.3 g in 1 L distilled water, add glycerol, heat with agitation, dispense, and autoclave at 121°C for 15 minutes. The medium produces characteristic green colonies for fast presumptive identification, improving efficiency in clinical pathogen detection and cosmetic microbial contamination testing.

Manufactured by Babio Biotechnology, a trusted Chinese supplier of microbiology laboratory supplies and culture media, this Cetrimide Agar ensures consistent quality, stable performance, and reliable results for research laboratories, clinical labs, and industrial quality control testing worldwide.
