Description
Isolate and enumerate yeasts and molds associated with food spoilage with ready-to-use Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Dichloran-Glycerol 18% (DG18) Agar. Due to the presence of Dichloran the medium inhibits spreading of mucoraceous fungi and restricts the colony size of the other genera, resulting in improved identification and enumeration of yeasts.

- Makes colony counting easier: contains antifungal agent Dichloran which inhibits spreading of mucoraceous fungi and restricts the colony size of other genera.
- Ready-to-use convenience of prepared media.
Dichloran-Glycerol (DG18) Agar is formulated with glycerol at 18% (w/w) which lowers the water activity (aW) from 0.999 to 0.95.1
