• Laboratory identification
• Minocycline
• Pythiosis

Growth of Pythium insidiosum mycelia around minocycline disks (30 mu g) did not occur within 7 days of incubation at 35 degrees C when the isolates were grown on Sabouraud, corn meal, Muller-Hinton or RPM! agar. This technique offers a simple and rapid method for the differentiation of P. insidiosum from true filamentous fungi.
