Abstract

The growth of Malassezia species in BACTEC Peds Plus blood culture bottles was optimized by using various lipid supplements. Palmitic acid (3%, wt/vol) was superior and overcame the inhibitory effect of blood in mock clinical specimens. Palmitic acid (3%) supplementation of Peds Plus bottles may improve recovery of Malassezia species in the BACTEC NR 660.
