FAQs
What is D.T.M Agar used for?
D.T.M Agar is used to isolate and identify dermatophytes, which are fungi that cause skin, hair, and nail infections. It suppresses non-dermatophyte fungi and bacteria for accurate diagnosis.
How does D.T.M Agar differ from Sabouraud Dextrose Agar?
Unlike Sabouraud Dextrose Agar, which supports general fungal growth, D.T.M Agar is selective. It contains cycloheximide and gentamicin to inhibit contaminants, making it ideal for dermatophyte isolation.
Can D.T.M Agar be used for bacterial cultures?
No, D.T.M Agar is formulated for fungal isolation. For bacterial cultures, use appropriate media like Nutrient Agar or Blood Agar.
How should I store D.T.M Agar plates?
Store plates at 2–8°C in a cool, dry place. Avoid freezing, and use before the expiry date for best results.
