General description<\/h3>\n
GranuCult\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0BAT agar supports the growth of\u00a0Alicyclobacillus\u00a0<\/i>spp. These are aerobic, Gram-positive spore-forming bacteria, with optimum growth at low pH and increased temperatures.\u00a0Alicyclobacilli\u00a0<\/i>are spoilage organisms, especially affecting the quality of fruit juices.
\nGranuCult\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0BAT agar contains glucose as a carbon and energy source. Yeast extract is the source of vitamins, particularly the B-group. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate acts as a buffering system. The low pH and the high incubation temperature inhibit the contaminating flora. This medium contains many trace elements, which supply the specific requirements of the\u00a0Alicyclobacillus\u00a0<\/i>spp. agar is the solidifying agent however, the gel strength is weak due to low pH.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Application<\/h3>\n
GranuCult\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0BAT agar is suitable for the enumeration, detection, and identification of\u00a0Alicyclobacillus\u00a0<\/i>spp. from fruit juices, other beverages, and their ingredients, environmental samples, including process water and other materials in the area of food production and food handling.<\/div>\n
