General description

Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA) is a complex growth medium used for the cultivation of a wide variety of microorganisms. Peptones in the medium provide amino acids and polypeptides to ensure the growth of microorganisms, while sodium chloride maintains the osmotic equilibrium. This universal agar displays a wide application range, including phage and colicin typing, X- and V-factor tests, and geno- and electrotyping (e.g. pulsed-field gel electrophoresis). TSA in the bottle can be used to prepare plates for surface spread or pour plate method.

Application

Tryptic Soy Agar is used for the cultivation and isolation of fastidious bacteria, yeasts, and fungi. It has a wide range of applications, including cultivation, maintenance of stock culture, and total aerobic microbial count. TSA is mainly used to determine bacterial contamination in cosmetics, drinking water, and wastewater.
