Agargel™ is a proprietary blend of agar and phytagel. Phytagel is intended for use in place of agar and other gelling agents for plant tissue culture. Phytagel has been shown to be a superior substitute for tissue-culture-grade agar in the micropropagation of banana plantlets. The typical working concentration is 3.5-5.0 g/L.
Application
Agargel™ has been used:
as a gelling agent for the solidification of B5 medium to study the effect of the gelling agent at different concentrations on the maturation of avocado somatic embryos[1]
as a component of the Murashige and Skoog basal medium (BM) to culture terminal and auxiliary buds from V. jatamansi[2]
for the solidification of the hydroponic solution to grow Arabidopsis thaliana[3]

An efficient clonal propagation procedure for six rice varieties cultivated in Argentina was developed by using shoot tip cultures, and the genetic stability of the micropropagated plants was verified by isozyme analysis. One week old seedlings obtained on MS medium
The current study was undertaken to determine the effects of different benzylaminopurine (BAP) concentrations on the accumulation of bioactive hypericin in Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra. via micropropagation. To achieve this objective, seeds of H. triquetrifolium Turra. were cultured on Murashige and
