Tryptic soy-serum-bacitracin-vancomycin (TSBV) is a type of agar plate medium used in microbiological testing to select for Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. a.). [1] It was described by Jørgen Slots in 1982, who also discovered the role of A.a. in periodontitis. [2]
Per litre, TSBV contains: [3]
- 40 g tryptic soy agar
- 1 g yeast extract
- 100 mL horse serum
- 75 mg bacitracin
- 5 mg vancomycin
