Our microbial media portfolio is designed for efficiency, reliability, and versatility—making lab workflows smoother and outcomes more dependable. Explore our range:
1. Ready-to-Use Agar Plates (Solidified)
Pre-poured and sterile, our agar plates are available in:
- 50 mm, 65 mm, and 90 mm Petri dishes, ideal for routine culturing and colony isolation.
- General-purpose media like Nutrient Agar and Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA), as well as specialized differential or selective media (e.g., Blood, MacConkey, Sabouraud).
Benefits:
- No preparation—simply open and use.
- Consistent quality batch-to-batch.
- Perfect for colony morphology studies, microbial counts, and purity assays.
2. Ready-to-Use Liquid Agar (Semi-Solid/Solid Media)
Pre-sterilized liquid agar format in 250 mL bottles, ready to dispense into tubes or pour your own plates.
- Useful for re-melting into plates or preparing slants and deeps.
- Based on standard agar compositions (1–2% agar), derived from red algae.
3. Dehydrated Agar Powder Media
Premium agar in powdered or granular form—ideal for labs that prefer customized media prep.
- Includes classic media: Nutrient Agar, Plate Count Agar, Potato Dextrose Agar, TSA.
- Shelf-stable for up to 2 years—just add water, autoclave, and pour plates or tubes.
4. Broths (Liquid Media)
Our liquid media selection supports both enrichment and general culturing needs:
- Nutrient Broth, Tryptic Soy Broth, Thioglycollate Broth—supporting aerobic, anaerobic, and fastidious organisms.
- Available in ready-to-use bottles or dehydrated powder format.
5. Swabs & Transport Media
Specialized sterile swabs pre-packaged in transport media for accurate sampling:
- Includes Stuart’s, Amies, Cary–Blair types—especially suited for clinical, environmental, and food/beverage sampling.
6. Supplements & Enrichment Additives
Enhance your media with supplements—blood, serum, antibiotics, growth factors:
