Description
Deoxycholate Citrate Agar is a dehydrated nutrient medium for microbiology, supplied as a ready-to-prepare powder base for laboratory culture work. It belongs to the range of dehydrated nutrient media for microbiology and is listed among media according to Ph. Eur., supporting standardized preparation of solid culture media in life-science settings. The product is After reconstitution according to established laboratory protocols, the medium can be used in routine microbiological examination workflows where a citrate- and deoxycholate-containing agar base is required. Categories cover life science and microbiology, reflecting its role in dehydrated media preparation rather than as a finished poured plate. The formulation is intended for professional laboratory use in media kitchens and quality-control environments that rely on Ph. Eur.-oriented nutrient media. Consistent pack presentation in plastic helps orderly storage and dispensing during batch preparation. This agar base integrates into conventional autoclave and pouring routines used for dehydrated culture media in research and industrial microbiology laboratories.

Questions about Deoxycholate Citrate Agar, for microbiology, 500 g, plastic
What is this article?
Deoxycholate Citrate Agar, for microbiology, 500 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Detergents & surfactants, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Life Science & Microbiology.
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.
