Description
Perfringens (OPSP) Agar Base is a selective culture-medium base offered in a 5000 g bulk pack for laboratories that prepare larger volumes of OPSP-type media for Clostridium perfringens work. The OPSP concept is associated with oleandomycin–polymyxin–sulphadiazine selective formulations prepared from a dehydrated agar base. The 5000 g unit quantity supports high-throughput media production, central media kitchens and sites that prefer extended stock continuity. Supplied by manufacturer Dinkelberg and originating from Hungary, the item forms part of the standard laboratory materials range for dehydrated culture media. After reconstitution and completion according to validated laboratory protocols, the medium can be used for plating and related microbiological procedures. Bulk packaging reduces the frequency of pack changes compared with smaller jars while keeping the same base identity. Clear product naming as Perfringens (OPSP) Agar Base helps purchasing and method documentation remain aligned. Intended for food, environmental and industrial microbiology environments that run regular Clostridium perfringens testing programmes and prepare OPSP agar in house.
This article is part of Dehydrated culture media (agar & broth bases), in Culture media & microbiology. See also Petri dishes.

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.
