Description
Cetrimide Agar is a ready-to-use microbiological nutrient medium supplied in a 1 l bottle for selective culture applications in the laboratory. Intended for microbiology, the formulation is aligned with ISO 22717 and supports standardised workflows where cetrimide agar is required for isolation and examination procedures. Provided ready-to-use, it helps minimise media preparation steps and supports consistent performance in routine and quality-control testing. The preparation has a boiling point of 100 °C. Unit weight is 0,413 kg for the one-litre bottle format, which is practical for bench use and controlled dispensing into plates or other culture vessels according to laboratory SOPs. This cetrimide agar is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH as part of a ready-to-use liquid nutrient media range suited to pharmacopoeia-related and general microbiological media stocks. The defined 1 l pack size aids traceability, stock rotation, and method documentation. Laboratories seeking a pre-prepared cetrimide medium for ISO-referenced work can integrate this bottle format into existing culture and identification protocols with minimal additional preparation.

Questions about Cetrimide Agar , ISO 22717, 1 l, bottle
What is this article?
Cetrimide Agar , ISO 22717, 1 l, bottle is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Detergents & surfactants, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A laboratory detergent or surfactant, such as SDS, Tween or Triton, solubilises membranes and stops proteins sticking. The average chain length and the peroxide content matter, especially for a protein that a peroxide would damage. A cleaning detergent for glassware is a different product.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
