Selectively detect and isolate dermatophytes, other fungi and yeasts with Thermo Scientific™ Sabouraud Glucose Agar with Gentamicin and Chloramphenicol. The use of gentamicin and chloramphenicol leads to the following selective effects with only minimal compromises of the growth properties: Chloramphenicol is a broadband antibiotic that suppresses gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria as well as acid-resistant bacilli; however, the growth of Pseudomonas species is only slightly suppressed while gentamicin is particularly effective against P. aeruginosa.

Dermatophytes and fungi grow in typical, characteristic colony shapes on Sabouraud Glucose Agar with Gentamicin and Chloramphenicol. For example, T. rubrum forms 2 to 3cm large, cream-coloured colonies with white spores and pink-colored underside, while A. niger forms approx. 3 to 5cm large, white colonies with black spores and C . albicans forms 2 to 3mm large, yellowish and round colonies. For additional, detailed colony descriptions, please refer to the mycological literature, e.g., Seeliger1.
