Scharlau Sabouraud Broth, Eur. Pharm.

Scharlau Sabouraud Broth is a liquid culture medium intended for fungal isolation and sterility testing. The manufacturer relates these uses to the Pharmacopoeial Harmonised Method and lists EP, HP and USP among the associated references. The broth format is relevant when a procedure specifies liquid culture rather than Sabouraud agar. Reference 02-165-500 identifies the selected dehydrated formulation for laboratory preparation. Other bottles, tubes and prepared presentations shown in the product family are separately referenced articles. For sterility-testing work, the laboratory should match the specified medium and use the incubation and result-reading conditions of its chosen pharmacopoeial procedure. The selected article is supplied as 500 g of dehydrated medium in a vacuum-wrapped flask. Prepare it and perform incubation, reading and quality-control checks according to the applicable laboratory procedure and manufacturer instructions.
