Product Description
Xylose-Lysine Deoxycholate Agar (XLD Agar) is a highly selective and differential medium designed for the isolation and differentiation of enteric pathogens, particularly Salmonella and Shigella species. This agar is widely used in microbiology labs for its ability to support the growth of these pathogens while inhibiting the growth of other microorganisms.
XLD Agar contains xylose, lysine, and deoxycholate, which create a selective environment that favors the growth of Salmonella and Shigella. The medium’s formulation helps to differentiate these pathogens based on their ability to ferment xylose and produce hydrogen sulfide, resulting in characteristic colony appearances.
