General description
Tryptic Soy Contact Agar + LTH - RT+ is designed for the determination of the total aerobic and anaerobic microbial count on dry, sanitized surfaces and personnel in the non-critical area.
TSA medium is used for the cultivation and isolation of a wide range of bacteria, yeasts, and molds. The formulation contains a combination of casein and soy peptones supplying organic nitrogen, particularly amino acids and longer-chained peptides. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic equilibrium and the medium is supplemented with neutralizers such as lecithin, polysorbate (Tween®) 80, and histidine to inactivate disinfectant residues. Additionally, the plate model (plus or “+”) is supplied with a lockable lid for safe transport after sampling and also for aerobic and anaerobic incubation of the plates.
