Principle And Interpretation

Fungi were among the first microorganisms recognized because some of the fruiting structures, such as the mushrooms, are
large enough to be seen without a microscope. Fungi can be grouped simply on the basis of morphology as either yeasts or
moulds (1). Fungal diseases that occur on the skin, hair and mucous membrane are called superficial mycoses, and the organism
that cause them, the dermatophytes (2). Where fungi are to be isolated, it is good practice to use a medium that favors their
growth but is not optimal for the growth of bacteria. Sabouraud Dextrose Broth is a modification of Dextrose Agar described by
Sabouraud (3). It is useful for the cultivation of fungi. This medium is in accordance with the harmonized method of USP/EP/
BP/JP (4,5,6,7) and is recommended for microbiological examination of non-sterile products. Peptic digest of animal tissues
and pancreatic digest of casein provides nitrogenous compounds essential for the growth of fungi. Dextrose acts as the energy
source.
