Description
Iron sulphite agar is a laboratory culture medium offered in a 500 g pack for professional media preparation. This bulk unit is intended for laboratories that prepare solid culture media from powdered components as part of routine microbiological workflows, quality-control programmes, and analytical testing. The 500 g quantity provides a practical working stock for weighing, dissolution, and sterilisation steps that are typical when agar bases are reconstituted according to in-house or validated procedures. Clear pack sizing supports inventory planning, batch documentation, and consistent ordering across multi-site facilities. The product belongs to the laboratory materials category and is suitable for integration into existing media kitchens and SOP-driven culture work where an iron sulphite agar preparation is specified. Originating from Hungary and available from manufacturer Dinkelberg, it is positioned for everyday use in controlled laboratory environments rather than as a finished ready-to-pour plate. Laboratories can align this iron sulphite agar with standard equipment for media production, autoclaving, and plating. The straightforward presentation helps maintain traceable stock levels while keeping media preparation flexible for varying daily demand.
This article is part of Dehydrated culture media (agar & broth bases), in Culture media & microbiology. See also Petri dishes.

Questions about Iron Sulphite Agar, 500g
What is this article?
Iron Sulphite Agar, 500g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Dinkelberg for laboratory use. It sits in Dehydrated culture media (agar & broth bases), inside Culture media & microbiology, in Microbiology lab supplies.
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.
