Description

Trichophyton HiVeg™ Agar-3 is recommended for differentiation of Trichophyton species. The various additives added help to determine the specific vitamin and amino acid requirements of the isolates. Trichophyton Agar-3 contains added inositol and thiamine. The medium is used along with Trichophyton Agar-1 to determine whether the isolate requires inositol, thiamine or both. This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risk.
