Is AST on 5% defibrinated sheep or horse blood better for MHA?

Is there a big difference between sheep blood and goat blood for MHA preparation?

What is your experience on the quality of a bacterial growth colony?

Why?

Javier J. Flores-Abuxapqui

By growing a vast majority of bacteria, is the same using sheep, goat or horse blood. I have also used rabbit blood. The difference is the hemolytic reaction you are expecting. I have no experience by performing MHA.
