Suspend 32.15 g of Spirit Blue Agar in 1000 ml of distilled water. Heat to boiling to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15 lbs. pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. Cool to 50°C and add slowly 30 ml of the lipase substrate while agitating to obtain an even distribution.
Note: To prepare the lipase substrate mix 1 ml of Tween 80 (Cat. No. 93780) in 400 ml warm distilled water. Add 100 ml of Cottonseed Oil (Cat. No. C7767) or Olive Oil (Cat. No. 75343). Agitate vigorously to emulsify.
