Leírás

Általános leírás

Agar is widely used in microbiology as a solidifying agent in microbial culture media. It is a polysaccharide derived from seaweed and is primarily composed of agarose. Agar is a mostly inert substance, which makes it an ideal material for microbial culture media because it doesn’t interfere with the growth of microorganisms. Agar can solidify media, allowing microorganisms to grow in a solid environment, which facilitates the formation of distinct colonies and selective isolation of specific microorganisms. Agar is also used in the preparation of selective and differential media, which can provide additional nutrients or other chemical substances to promote or inhibit the growth of specific microorganisms selectively. Agar is sterilized by autoclaving and then poured into Petri dishes, where it can cool and solidify, forming the surface for microbial growth.

Alkalmazás

Agar is commonly used as a solidifying agent in many microbial culture media for the growth and identification of bacteria, yeasts and molds from various pharmaceutical, environmental, food and beverage samples.

Tulajdonságok és előnyök

Our Granulated media are:

• Safer - Significant reduction of inhalation of toxic and allergenic substances resulting in fewer allergic responses. Less contamination of working tools and environment
• Accurate - No separation of components and no clumping, even under humid or warm conditions, ensure a uniform product with higher performance accuracy
• Fast - Rapid and uniform dissolution in water
• Easier - Easier handling and weighing due to the better flow properties
• Reliable - Homogenous distribution of ingredients guarantees high reproducibility even if only small amounts are used.
