Wort Agar (Base), for microbiology, 500 g, plastic

Wort Agar (Base) is a dry nutrient medium for microbiology intended for laboratory detection work involving yeasts and moulds. It is grouped with dry nutrient media and with nutrient media for the detection of yeast and moulds, and also appears in hygiene-monitoring contexts where fungal culture media are required. The base agar format allows laboratories to prepare plates according to their validated recipes and incubation schemes for yeast and mould examination. Packaging is a 500 g plastic unit, practical for media preparation rooms that maintain stock of specialised agars. The unit weight is 0,604 kg. Sourced from manufacturer Carl ROTH, Wort Agar (Base) supports microbiological analyses in which a wort-type agar base is specified for yeast and mould workflows. It is suited to catalogues covering dry nutrient media and fungal detection without extending claims beyond the stated microbiological use. Consistent naming and pack presentation help maintain continuity in routine hygiene and quality-control media schedules.
