Rose Bengal Agar

1.Due to varying microwave power, if the medium is not fully melted within 3 minutes, crush it into pieces before heating on high power, or extend the heating time by 0.5 to 1 minute.
2.Check for contamination. Do not use if microbial growth is observed.
3.Pour plates under aseptic conditions to prevent microbial contamination.
4.Do not overheat in the microwave, as excessive heating will cause severe water loss and reduce the nutritional performance of the product.
5.This product is for single use only. Pour out all the medium in the bottle and avoid repeated melting and solidification.
6.This product is not intended for clinical diagnosis. Test Principle: Peptone provides carbon and nitrogen sources; glucose acts as an energy source; potassium dihydrogen phosphate serves as a buffer; magnesium sulfate supplies essential trace elements; agar is the gelling agent for the medium. Chloramphenicol inhibits bacterial growth. Rose Bengal acts as a selective bacteriostatic agent, suppressing bacterial growth and preventing overspread of fungal colonies caused by excessive growth of certain molds.
