Tularemia is an acute infectious zoonotic disease caused by bacteria belonging to the Francisella family. Tularemia affects many animals, but the form of the disease carried by rodents can be dangerous for people. There are no people immune to tularemia, but the disease is usually prevented by vaccination and sufficient immunity. Thus, the development of an effective medium for isolating the causative agent of tularemia infection is an important and urgent task.
This culture medium was developed for use in the diagnosis of tularemia. It consists of various components, including growth media, stabilizers and additives to create a favorable atmosphere for bacterial growth. The best conditions for the growth of the tularemic microbe are a medium containing a certain amount of sodium chloride and glucose. A nutrient medium for isolating tularemic microorganisms helps diagnose infection and treat tularemia. In addition, this environment is an important part of the process of detecting and preventing dangerous infections.
