Description
Cultivate and isolate fastidious pathogens and other microorganisms with clearly visible hemolytic reactions with Oxoid™ Nutrient Agar, a formulation designed to provide especially nutritious media to permit maximum recovery of delicate microorganisms without affecting their hemolytic reactions. An improved version of Blood Agar Base, the medium can be used without the supplementation of blood to subculture microorganisms for maintenance purposes, or to check the purity of subcultures from isolation plates prior to further testing.
Use Nutrient Agar for the cultivation of a variety of organisms without interfering with their hemolytic reactions.
- Permits the maximum recovery of delicate microorganisms without affecting hemolytic reactions.
- No need for supplementation when maintaining subcultures or preparing further biochemical or serological tests.
- Ready-to-use convenience of prepared media.
Benefits:
- Ready-to-use convenience – Pre-poured plates save time and reduce preparation errors.
- Consistent quality – Manufactured under strict quality control for reliable microbiological results.
- Supports a wide range of organisms – Ideal for cultivating non-fastidious bacteria and general microbiology applications.
- Clear hemolytic reaction visibility – Enables accurate observation of hemolysis for diagnostic purposes.
- Durable polypropylene plates – Resistant to breakage and suitable for routine lab handling.
- Packaged for efficiency – Supplied in packs of 10, film-wrapped for easy storage and reduced contamination risk.
- ISO-compliant media – Meets industry standards for microbiological testing and research.
