Abstract

Fungal inhibition in four commonly used agar media was improved by substituting natamycin (pimaricin) for cycloheximide. The recovery of bacteria was not affected by natamycin, whereas fungal contamination from a variety of samples was significantly suppressed. Furthermore, natamycin lacks the occupational health hazards of cycloheximide. Medium-dependent natamycin degradation occurred during the preparation and refrigerated storage of agar plates, but the addition of natamycin at 21.6 μg/ml resulted in effective residual activity.
