Description

Cultivate Trichomonas vaginalis from urethral and vaginal swabs, and urine specimens using these ready prepared bottles.

Cultivate Trichomonas vaginalis from urethral and vaginal swabs, and urine specimens with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Trichomonas Selective Medium ready prepared bottles. The presence of selective agent chloramphenicol is inhibitory to Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria with no inhibitory effect on Trichomonas. The addition of small amounts of agar reduces the oxygen tension, resulting in more prolific growth of Trichomonas.

Trichomonas vaginalis is an anerobic, flagellated parasite and the causative agent of trichomoniasis. Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted infection of the urogenital tract and is a common cause of vaginitis in women. While men with this infection can display symptoms of urethritis.

The cultivation of T. vaginalis is the most sensitive method for the diagnosis of this sexually transmitted organism. Use Trichomonas Selective Medium for cultivation of T. vaginalis from clinical samples.

  • Selective: due to the presence of chloramphenicol the medium is selective for T. vaginalis.
  • Convenient: the pre-filled bottles are ready for immediate use.
  • Simple: easy-to-use with minimum training.
  • Long shelf life: up to 12 months.

On the medium, good growth of both Trichomonas and Candida may be obtained in mixed cultures. However, the growth of Candida spp. seldom interferes with the growth of Trichomonas.
