We manufacture many different types of culture media intended for veterinary use. Many types of media are produced and can be used for the identification and isolation of bacteria or other organisms. Single (mono) plates to quad plates with multiple agars are designed to be species specific and selective for both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The proper identification of a source organism can help assure the appropriate use and best selection of antibiotics.
