Overview

Isolate and identify fungi from clinical specimens using InMicro® Prepared: Potato Flake Agar. In 1982, Rinaldi reported that Potato Flake Agar promotes sporulation of molds, is easy to prepare and stable to store. Riddell described the use of Potato Flake agar to stimulate sporulation using the slide culture technique.

Molds require microscopic evaluation of morphological structures for proper identification. Potato Dextrose Agar enhances the production of characteristic morphological features such as conidia.

  • Ready to use – Convenience of prepared, solid media

This medium contains potato flakes that provide a nutritive base for luxuriant growth of fungi. Dextrose provides energy. The pH of the medium is adjusted to 5.6 to enhance the growth of fungi and inhibit bacteria. These ingredients in the medium enable yeasts and molds to grow and produce morphological structures that are necessary for the identification of many pathogenic and opportunistic fungi.
