Selective Isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Irgasan-based suppression of competing flora enables recovery from clinical, environmental, and industrial samples.

Pigment Differentiation: Magnesium chloride, potassium sulfate, and glycerol promote pyocyanin and pyoverdine production for presumptive identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Enumeration in Water and Wastewater: Used to detect and count Pseudomonas in potable water, cooling towers, pools, and wastewater.

Environmental Monitoring: Surveillance of Pseudomonas spp. on surfaces, equipment, and cleanroom areas in healthcare and manufacturing.

Bioburden and Contamination Screening: Detection of Pseudomonas spp. in pharmaceutical, bioprocess, and cosmetic samples prior to release testing.

Food and Beverage Hygiene Testing: Recovery of Pseudomonas spp. from raw materials, process water, and finished products.

Pre-isolation for AST and ID Workflows: Obtaining pure Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonies prior to antimicrobial susceptibility testing and identification.

Quality Control of Reference Strains: Routine QC of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Pseudomonas spp. to verify medium selectivity and performance.
