Description
Isolate and identify Gardnerella vaginalis from clinical specimens using Thermo Scientific™ Gardnerella vaginalis Selective Medium, a selective medium containing a special blood agar base designed to enhance the growth of fastidious organisms while maintaining osmotic balance.
Gardnerella vaginalis is found in the genitourinary tract of females and is an indicator organism for bacterial vaginosis (BV). BV is a risk factor for premature labor, chorioamnionitis, and postpartum endometritis. Women with postpartum fever and neonates with sepsis may be infected with Gardnerella vaginalis. In males, Gardnerella vaginalis has been associated with urinary tract infections, prostatitis, and urethritis. Gardnerella vaginalis is a gram-variable rod or coccobacillus. Beta hemolysis is observed on human or rabbit blood-containing media, but not sheep blood agars.
Erythrocytes in the medium act as nutritional and diagnostic criterion for the production of Beta haemolysis, with Tween 80 added to improve the size of the haemolytic zones. Accompanying floara is inhibited by Gentamicin, Nalidixic acid and Amphotericin B.
