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.
