SAAMF (Synthetic Amino Acid Medium-Fungal) is a completely defined, highly buffered medium developed to support the growth of a wide spectrum of fungi. SAAMF has been demonstrated to be nonantagonistic to any presently known antifungal agent and is preferred to media containing naturally derived components.
Dissolve 50.93g in 800-900ml of ddH2O, stirring gently until completely solubilized. Adjust pH of the medium to the desired level. Add additional water to bring the solution to1L Filter-sterilize using a 0.22 micron membrane filter. Aliquot into sterile containers. Do not autoclave. Contains heat-labile compounds that can be damaged with autoclaving.
Store powdered media at RT. Opened bottles should be capped tightly and kept in a dark, low humidity environment. Prepared media should be kept at 4°C and used within a short period of time.
