Description
Sabouraud dextrose agar BAC Ph. Eur. is a dehydrated microbiological culture medium supplied as a 500 g pack for laboratory media preparation. Aligned with European Pharmacopoeia expectations for BAC-grade Sabouraud dextrose agar, it is intended for the cultivation and enumeration of yeasts, moulds and acid-tolerant microorganisms in pharmaceutical, food and clinical testing settings. The powder is prepared by standard rehydration and autoclaving workflows to produce plates or tubes that support clear colony development and reproducible mycological results. With a net weight of 0,580 kg, the pack suits medium-throughput quality-control and environmental-monitoring laboratories that need a reliable stock of Sabouraud-type medium. Offered by manufacturer Labbox in the LABKEM range, it fits routine media kitchens without specialised handling steps. Applications include fungal growth studies, acidophilic organism recovery and general mycological screening where a dextrose-based selective base is required. This 500 g unit helps maintain continuous availability of ready-to-prepare agar while remaining practical for everyday bench use.

What is this article?

A dehydrated medium is a powder the laboratory dissolves, sterilises and pours. The formulation name, the supplements it still needs, and the grams per litre are the specification. Two powders with similar names, one selective and one not, grow different organisms.
A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
