This is a selective medium for the isolation of Helicobacter pylori from clinical samples.
The medium is based on a modification of Campylobacter CCDA Blood Free Medium with charcoal, ferrous sulphate and sodium pyruvate replacing the horse blood.
The medium is made selective by the addition of vancomycin and cefsulodin, to suppress other bacteria, and amphoteracin to inhibit yeasts. Horse serum (10%) is also added to promote optimum growth of Helicobacter spp.
Used for the isolation of Helicobacter pylori from clinical samples.
