Cat. no.

AG061

PACK SIZE:

1 plate per pouch

Bacteroides Bile Esculin Agar is an enriched, selective, and differential medium recommended for the rapid isolation and presumptive identification of obligately anaerobic Gram-negative bacilli of the Bacteroides fragilis group Bilophila spp.

LKV (Laked Blood with Kanamycin and Vancomycin) Agar is recommended for use in the selective isolation and partial identification of obligately anaerobic Gram-negative bacilli, such as Prevotella spp. and Bacteroides spp.

CCP Anaerobic Media Comparison Abstract

AnaeroGRO™ media demonstrated superior performance across all strains tested on Brucella, BBE, and LKV.
Colonies were consistently larger and more robust, improving visibility and ease of isolation—particularly in mixed anaerobic cultures.
Larger colony morphology supports more efficient colony selection.
AnaeroGRO™ showed a clear advantage in colony size and robustness when compared to BD and Anaerobe Systems Brucella, BBE, and LKV media.
