Description
CASO Agar, granulated is a dehydrated culture medium intended for microbiological applications. Supplied as free-flowing granules in a 500 g plastic pack, it is designed for convenient weighing, dissolution and preparation of solid nutrient media in the laboratory. The granulated form supports homogeneous reconstitution and is suited to routine microbiology workflows, including hygiene monitoring and surface-related analyses where a reliable non-selective base medium is required. This product from manufacturer Carl ROTH belongs to the established range of dehydrated nutrient media used for cultivation and examination of microorganisms under controlled conditions. Laboratories can prepare plates or other solid formats according to standard microbiological practice once the granules have been dissolved and sterilised as appropriate for the method in use. The 500 g pack size balances throughput needs with manageable storage for medium-scale testing environments. CASO Agar in granulated quality offers a practical option for microbiology teams seeking consistent media preparation for everyday culture work.

Questions about CASO Agar, granulated, for microbiology, 500 g, plastic
What is this article?
CASO Agar, granulated, for microbiology, 500 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Dehydrated culture media (agar & broth bases), inside Culture media & microbiology, in Life Science & Microbiology.
A dehydrated medium is a powder the laboratory dissolves, sterilises and pours. The formulation name, the supplements it still needs, and the grams per litre are the specification. Two powders with similar names, one selective and one not, grow different organisms.
A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
