Transport media for microbes are specialized substances or solutions designed to preserve the viability of microorganisms during their transfer from one location to another, such as from a clinical sample collection site to a laboratory for analysis.
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Transport media for microbes are specialized substances or solutions designed to preserve the viability of microorganisms during their transfer from one location to another, such as from a clinical sample collection site to a laboratory for analysis. The choice of transport medium depends on the type of microorganism being transported and the specific testing or analysis that will be performed. Here are some common transport media for different types of microbes: Cary-Blair Transport Medium: This medium is specifically designed for the transport of enteric pathogens, such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella, from fecal specimens. It contains a pH buffer and a reducing agent. UVT (Universal Viral Transport) Medium: UVT is used to transport viruses, including respiratory viruses like influenza and SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19). It typically contains salts, protein stabilizers, and antibiotics. |
