Baird-Parker RPF Agar
Description
Specifications
Documents
Description
Baird Parker RPF (RPF = Rabbit Plasma Fibrinogen) Agar is used for the direct detection and enumeration of coagulase positive staphylococci. The medium has the advantage of considerably reducing the number of confirmation tests for the presence of coagulase positive staphylococci particularly when atypical colonies are observed on other selective media. The medium allows the simultaneous enumeration and confirmation to be performed in a single operation.
