Beschreibung

General description

GranuCult^® plus Standard I Nutrient Agar is a granulated culture medium for cultivation of fastidious bacteria. It can also serve as high-grade base for the preparation of special culture media by adding blood, ascites fluid, serum or other enrichment. This culture medium contains peptone and yeast extract for providing nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids and carbon sources. Glucose is an additional carbon source. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance and agar is the solidifying agent.

Application

Standard I Nutrient Agar can be used for the cultivation of fastidious microorganisms from food and animal feed, water and other samples. This culture medium can also be used for enumeration, isolation and enrichment of bacteria.

• Convenient, with minimal component separation and clumping, even under warm or humid conditions
• High batch-to- batch reproducibility
• Prolonged shelf life of up to five years
• High number of test strains exceeding all regulatory demands
