The ISP range for actinomycetes
The ISP (International Streptomyces Project) range is the standard media set for the taxonomy of Streptomyces and other actinomycetes. Each number provides a different carbon and nitrogen combination for observing mycelial colour, soluble pigment, and sporulation. Taxonomic descriptions normally require several of the numbered media read together.
