Principle :- Tryptone tellurite agar base is a selective medium used for isolation and cultivation of Corynebacterium species. The media is formulated as per specification stated by Maryland state, department of health as medium for isolation of Corynebacterium. The tryptone tellurite agar base is composed of casein enzyme Hydrolysate, peptic digest of animal tissue, sodium chloride, dextrose and agar. The casein enzyme Hydrolysate, peptic digest of animal tissue is the source of nitrogen, carbon and other essential nutrients required for the growth of microorganisms. The media is fortified with potassium tellurite and vitamin supplements. C. diphtheriae reduces potassium tellurite to tellurium and thereby produce gray-black color ed colonies.
