Application

This Nutrient Agar contains only plant peptone instead of animal peptone. It is used for the cultivation of bacteria and for the enumeration of organisms in water, sewage, feces and other materials.

Preparation Note

Suspend 23 g in 1000 ml distilled water. Boil to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15 lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. If desired, the medium can be enriched with 5-10% v/v sterile defibrinated blood.

Footnote

We offer two media types: the superior granulated GranuCult® and the cost-efficient powdered NutriSelect® culture media, depending on your needs.
The designations basic, plus, or prime are added to indicate the quality control level, from basic quality control to standard QC plus to prime for full regulatory compliance.
