MycologicaI Peptone was developed specifically for incorporation in solid media used for the isolation and diagnosis of pathogenic and non-pathogenic fungi. It rapidly gives a luxuriant growth with typical morphology and pigmentation. Since it does not encourage bacterial growth because of its acidity media containing this peptone are useful for the isolation of pathogenic fungi from material heavily infected with bacteria.
It is a blend of peptones with a pH of 5.3.
