keep casein in UV light for 40 mints
P. vulgaris does digest casein. When placed on a casein agar plate, which is opaque, and incubated P. vulgaris will leave a "clear zone" where the casein is being broken down. This proves that protein hydrolysis occurs.
by autoclaving at 121°C for 15 minutes
the most recognized media for isolation of actinomycetes are starch casein and oat meal
Casein is not soluble in water.
You can't sterilize blood as it would hemolize. Blood is sterilized aseptically when it is purchased-meaning the animal (lets say a sheep) is killed in a certain way to ensure this happens. So the blood in your blood agar plate has already been aseptically sterilized
Because it is a selective medium
Dear Friend You can autoclave this medium but be carefull about volume of media because in time of heating it overflows. I make about 300 cc medium in a 1L erlenmeyer.

PEA agar, also referred to as Phenylethyl Alcohol Agar is a medium used by microbiologists to grow microorganisms. The ingredient that supplies nitrogen is casein.

Pancreatic digest of casein, papaic digest of soybean meal, beef extract, peptone
If the casein in the milk is hydrolyzed it will lose its opaqueness. Therefore, if the bacteria have the exoenzyme capable of casein hydrolysis, there will be a clear zone around the bacterial growth. If the organism lacks the exoenzyme to break down casein the skim milk agar will remain white and opaque.

Casein is the ingredient in PEA that supplies carbon, as well as nitrogen. PEA is also known as Phenylethyl Alcohol Blood Agar.
αS1 casein αS2 casein β-casein κ-casein
mannitol is a type of sugar, so it supplies the carbon in the MSA medium
