L-Broth Agar is a nutritionally rich medium originally developed for growth and maintenance of recombinant E. coli strains.
- Eliminate waste, inaccuracies and mess
- Encanpsulated format for convenience and ease of use
- Growth characteristics are the same as L-Broth Agar powder
L-Broth Agar Medium supports a luxurious growth of E. coli cells as tryptone and yeast extract supply essential growth factors that E. coli cells would otherwise have to synthesize. The medium also contains essential electrolytes for transport and osmotic balance, due to the NaCl component.
Media Preparation: Reagents are tested and chosen for their ability to promote optimum growth of E. coli when combined in L-Broth Agar Medium formulations. Chosen reagents are combined in the proper proportions according to the L-Broth Agar formulation and thoroughly blended for a uniform distribution. A sample of the blended formulation is used to prepare agar medium. The combinations are mixed to dissolve components and then autoclaved at 121 °C for 15 minutes.
