Alkaline Saline Peptone Water is a medium for the enrichment of Vibrio spp. from food and water samples according to ISO 21872-1:2017 and ISO 21872-2:2007, and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Originally described by Shread, Donovan & Lee as an enrichment broth for Aeromonas spp. and identified by Cruickshank as an effective medium for the enrichment of Vibrio spp., Alkaline Saline Peptone Water uses elevated pH and salt levels to provide a favorable environment for the enrichment of Vibrio spp. Peptone provides essential vitamins, minerals, amino acids & nitrogen for growth requirements. Sodium chloride provides essential electrolytes for maintenance of the osmotic balance. Sub-culture onto Thiosulfate Citrate Bile Salts Sucrose (TCBS) Agar (NCM0052) will be required.

HC Agar Base is used with Tween 80 (Polysorbate 80) for the enumeration of molds in cosmetics in a laboratory setting. HC Agar Base is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Methods for isolating molds from cosmetic products require incubation for 5 - 7 days using traditional agar media. In 1986, Mead and O’Neill described a new medium, HC Agar, for enumerating molds in cosmetic products. The formulation of HC Agar decreased incubation time to 3 days at 27.5 ± 0.5°C for molds. HC Agar Base, based on the HC Agar formula of Mead and O’Neill, is supplemented with Tween 80 (Polysorbate 80) to prepare HC Agar.
