Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) is a specialized growth medium widely used for cultivating fungi, particularly yeasts and molds. Its composition includes dextrose as a primary carbon source, peptone for nitrogen and growth factors, and agar as a solidifying agent, typically adjusted to a slightly acidic pH of around 5.6 to inhibit bacterial growth while promoting fungal development.
SDA is instrumental in isolating fungi from various sources, such as clinical specimens and food, and is commonly employed for identifying yeast species like Candida. Variants of the medium may include antibiotics like chloramphenicol to further suppress bacterial contamination. Incubated at temperatures ranging from 25 to 30°C, SDA provides an ideal environment for the growth and study of a diverse array of fungal organisms, making it a critical tool in microbiology and clinical laboratories.
Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) is one kind of culture media that is mostly used in universities and research center.
