Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (Sabouraud Liquid Medium) : Intended Use

Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (Sabouraud Liquid Medium) M033
Intended Use:
Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (Sabouraud Liquid Medium) is used for cultivation of yeasts, moulds and aciduric
microorganisms.
Composition**
Ingredients Gms / Litre
Dextrose (Glucose) 20.000
Peptone, special 10.000
Final pH ( at 25°C) 5.6±0.2
**Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters
Directions
Suspend 30.0 grams in 1000 ml distilled water. Heat if necessary to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving
at 15 lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. Mix well and dispense as desired.
Principle And Interpretation

Sabouraud Dextrose Agar is Carliers modifications (2) of the formulation described by Sabouraud (7) for the cultivation of
fungi, particularly those associated with skin infections. The medium is also recommended by APHA (8). Sabouraud
Dextrose Broth is also a modification by Sabouraud (6) and serves the same purpose as Sabouraud Dextrose Agar Medium 3.
Sabouraud dextrose media are peptone media supplemented with dextrose to support the growth of fungi. Peptone(meat and
casein) provides nitrogen, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and growth factors. Dextrose provides an energy source for the
growth of microorganisms. The low pH favors fungal growth and inhibits contaminating bacteria from clinical specimens (5).
The acid reaction of the final medium is inhibitory to a large number of bacteria making it particularly useful for cultivating
fungi and aciduric microorganisms. For isolation of fungi from contaminated specimens, a selective medium should be
inoculated simultaneously. Incubate cultures for 4 to 6 weeks before reporting as negative.
Type of specimen
Clinical : skin scrapings; Pharmaceutical samples.
Specimen Collection and Handling

For clinical samples follow appropriate techniques for handling specimens as per established guidelines (3,4).
For food and dairy samples, follow appropriate techniques for sample collection and processing as per guidelines (1,8).
After use, contaminated materials must be sterilized by autoclaving before discarding.
Warning and Precautions

In Vitro diagnostic use only. Read the label before opening the container. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/
eye protection/face protection. Follow good microbiological lab practices while handling specimens and culture. Standard
precautions as per established guidelines should be followed while handling clinical specimens. Safety guidelines may be
referred in individual safety data sheets.
Limitations
1. Since it is a general purpose medium, bacterial cultures will also grow .
2. Further isolation and biochemical tests should be carried out for confirmation.

Storage and Shelf Life

Store below 30°C in a tightly closed container and the prepared medium at 15-25°C. Use before expiry date on the label. On
opening, product should be properly stored dry, after tightly capping the bottle in order to prevent lump formation due to the
hygroscopic nature of the product. Improper storage of the product may lead to lump formation. Store in dry ventilated area
protected from extremes of temperature and sources of ignition Seal the container tightly after use. Use before expiry date on
the label. Product performance is best if used within stated expiry period.
Disposal
User must ensure safe disposal by autoclaving and/or incineration of used or unusable preparations of this product. Follow
established laboratory procedures in disposing of infectious materials and material that comes into contact with clinical
sample must be decontaminated and disposed of in accordance with current laboratory techniques (3,4)
