Malt Extract Agar (Acidified) is a medium for the detection, isolation and enumeration of yeasts and moulds. Addition of lactic acid is intended for the suppression of bacteria
It is a nutrient-rich medium which supplies carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals that support fungal growth and encourage characteristic colony development. Lactic acid lowers the pH, suppressing bacterial growth and improving the recovery of yeasts and moulds from mixed microbial populations.
The medium is particularly suitable for testing food, beverages, dairy products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and environmental samples. It supports colony enumeration and morphological examination, although further biochemical or molecular testing may be required for species-level identification
Manufactured in compliance with ISO 9001 (Ref No FM37824) and tested in accordance with ISO 11133 by a UKAS (ISO 17025) accredited laboratory (Ref No. 4356).
