Recommended for the cultivation of yeasts, moulds and aciduric bacteria from pharmaceutical products in accordance with the microbial limit testing by harmonized methodology of USP/EP/BP/JP.
Fungi were among the first microorganisms recognized because some of the fruiting structures, such as the mushrooms, are large enough to be seen without a microscope. Fungi can be grouped simply on the basis of morphology as either yeasts or moulds (1). Fungal diseases that occur on the skin, hair and mucous membrane are called superficial mycoses, and the organism that cause them, the dermatophytes (2). Where fungi are to be isolated, it is good practice to use a medium that favors their growth but is not optimal for the growth of bacteria. Sabouraud Dextrose Agar is Carliers modification (3) of the formulation described by Sabouraud (4) for the cultivation of fungi (yeasts, moulds), and aciduric microorganisms. Sabouraud Dextrose Agar is recommended for microbiological examination of non-sterile products in accordance with the harmonized method of USP/EP/BP/JP (5-8). This medium is also employed in microbial limit tests in pharmaceutical testing, food and cosmetics (9)
