PAGANO LEVIN BASE

Pagano Levin Base prepared as per the formulation of Pagano, Levin and Trejo is used for the isolation and differentiation of Candida species. Differentiation is based on the ability of Candida species to reduce TTC (2, 3, 5-Triphenyl Tetrazolium Chloride). TTC is a redox indicator which is colourless in the oxidized form and when reduced forms an insoluble red triphenyl formazan compound which appears as red coloured colonies. Pagano Levin Base is superior to Sabouraud Dextrose Agar in detecting yeast species.
