Basidlomyceteal at 5 ()1-19 but In general It Is not used in selective
media an it in especially active In decre"Ing fungitoxicity (Cochrane

Potato dextrose agar
(PDA) (Appendix 1)
PDA is a useful all purpose medium andwas used by Datra and Batra
(1966) to Isolate Temitomypeag but with the addition of 10 gl-, l of
yeast extract.
Richards agar (Appendix 1)
Heim (1977) used Richards agar in his attempts to establish
artificial cultures of Termit M ces.
(y) Sabourauds aW (Appendix 1)
Sabourauds agar in the classical medium for the culture of
dermatophyteso This was used by Ifeim (1977) in his initial attempts
to obtain artificial cultures frOM mYcotOtes of Termit=cas. Datra
and Datra (1966v 1979) alsO used it in culturing Tarmitomyroa
(z) Salicylanilide
Salicylanilide luts been found to be active against Asnerpillus
niner. WW Penicillium e2M

Sodium pentachlorphenoxide.
(A) Sodium proplonate
Sodium propionate has been screened for use In selective media
(19GO) at O, W4* 0.00.9 0.1 and 095 91-19 and by
Papavlzas (1967),, It does not inhibit the growth of actir=yccteo
(Corice and Chaae 1956).
