Cary Blair is another modification of Stuart media. The glycerophosphate has been substituted by inorganic phosphate since glycerophosphate is a metabolite for some bacteria, so they could grow and disgrise the pathogens amount. The methylene blue has also been removed and the pH increased to 8.4. This is a media originally developed for faecal samples but is also used successfully for anaerobic transport, such as: Neisseria gonorrhoeae Vibrio cholerae Vibrio parahaemolyticus Haemophilus influenzae Neisseria meningiditis Bordetella pertusis Streptococcus pneumoniae Shigella flexneri Pasteurella pestis Campylobacter Spp., etc. Swabs are sterilised by radiation.
