MUELLER-HINTON AGAR
Code：CM0337
Description
Mueller-Hinton Agar was designed to be a reproducible culture medium for the isolation of pathogenic Neisseria species （Mueller & Hinton1）. The inclusion of starch ensures that toxic factors found during growth will be absorbed and its presence is often essential to establish growth from very small inocula2.
However, GC selective media （GC Agar Base CM0367 plus supplements SR0056/SR0091/SR0095/SR0101/SR0104/SR0105） have replaced Meuller-Hinton Agar for this purpose.
The major use of Mueller-Hinton Agar is for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing （AST）. It has become the standard medium for the Bauer-Kirby method3,4 and its performance is specified by the NCCLS5,6.
Oxoid Mueller-Hinton Agar meets the requirements of WHO7,8. Criticisms have been made about variation in performance of Mueller-Hinton Agar between and with manufacturers’ batches/lots of medium9. The causes of such variation are:
Storage conditions and Shelf life
Store the dehydrated medium at 10-30°C and use before the expiry date on the label.
Store the prepared plates at 2-8°C.
