Grow and isolate obligate and facultative anaerobic organisms, such as the fastidious anaerobic bacteria Bacteroides, Prevotella and Porphyromonas, using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Schaedler Anaerobe Agar with Sheep Blood, Haemin and Vitamin K1
Schaedler Agar w/Blood, Hemin, Vitamin K contains cysteine hydrochloride and glucose, as reducing substances, with the advantage that cysteine inhibits the growth of Escherichia coli. Schaedler Agar w/Blood, Hemin, Vitamin K has been shown to be a suitable alternative to blood agar for the enumeration of clostridia and has been used for the examination of food, waste products and ditch water. Studies have shown the necessity for strict anaerobic conditions for the successful recovery of obligate anaerobes when using this medium without the addition of blood.
