What medium should I use for the sensitivity testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae?
A GC II Agar Base with 1% defined growth supplement is the required medium for the disc diffusion susceptibility testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae incubated in 5% CO2. (Catalog # 221240; GC II Agar w/ IsoVitaleX™ Enrichment). Chocolate II Agar cannot be used because it contains hemoglobin in addition to the IsoVitaleX. Note: Use no more than nine discs on a 150mm plate or four discs on a 100mm plate.
