YEPD or yeast separate peptone dextrose, likewise frequently condensed as YPD, is a finished vehicle for yeast development. It contains yeast separate, peptone, twofold refined water, and glucose or dextrose. It can be utilized as strong medium by including agar. The yeast concentrate will regularly contain all the amino acids essential for development. By being a finished medium, YEPD can't be utilized as a determination medium to test for auxotroph. Rather, YEPD is utilized as a development medium to develop yeast cultures.YEPD normally contains 1% yeast separate, 2% peptone, and 2% glucose/dextrose in refined water. It might be made as a stock, or made into an agar gel by adding 1.5 to 2% of agar to hot stock and permitting the blend to cool and set.
