Description
MUELLER HINTON AGAR BLOOD is used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. It has become the standard medium for the Bauer-Kirby method and its performance is specifi ed by NCCLS (National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards). Mueller Hinton Agar II can be used to cultivate gonococci and meningococci specimens. The medium can be used with complete confi dence because it is a rich medium able to grow fastidious organisms. The use of a medium with suitable growth characteristics is essential to test susceptibility of microorganisms to antibiotics. It is also recommended for testing most commonly encountered aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria.Beef infusion and Acid Casein peptone (H) provide nitrogen, vitamins, minerals and amino acids essential for growth. The starch absorbs any toxic metabolites produced. Bacteriological agar is the solidifying agent.Inoculate and incubate at 35 ± 2°C for 18 - 24 hours.
The medium complies with the requirement of NCCLS and is manufactured carefully, choosing the raw materials to contain low concentrations of thymine and thymidine, as well as appropriate levels of calcium and magnesium ions.
