Description
Agar media are culture media intended for colony count determination by the membrane filtration method or via direct incubation. These media support microbiological enumeration workflows in which microorganisms are retained on a membrane or incubated directly on the agar surface to form countable colonies. Supplied in a pack of 50 pc(s) with a net weight of 2,330 kg and identical gross weight, the product offers a practical quantity for routine laboratory use. The agar media from manufacturer Sartorius are produced in Germany and serve as a nutrient base for assessing microbial loads in water, beverages, pharmaceuticals or other test samples. Their dual applicability—membrane filtration or direct incubation—allows flexible integration into existing colony-counting protocols without requiring specialised equipment beyond standard incubators and filtration apparatus. Laboratories engaged in quality control, environmental monitoring or research can employ these media to obtain reliable colony counts under controlled conditions. The formulation is suited to conventional microbiological practice and provides a consistent platform for growth and subsequent enumeration of viable organisms.
This article belongs on Cell culture media & sera, in Cell culture.

Questions about Nutrient Agar, 50 tubes
What is this article?
Nutrient Agar, 50 tubes is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Cell culture media & sera, inside Cell culture, in Life Science & Microbiology.
Cell-culture medium is the liquid a cell line grows in. Serum, often fetal bovine, supplies what the basal medium does not. With or without glutamine, with or without phenol red, and the serum origin are different products. Serum is a cold-chain article and is never part of free standard delivery.
Cell culture grows cells outside the body. The medium, often with serum, supplies what the flask does not. A flask or a dish is the vessel, treated so the cells attach or left untreated so they float. Contamination by microbes, or by another cell line, is the ordinary failure. Cold-chain articles in this work, including serum, are never part of free standard delivery. Lines are catalogued by ATCC. Papers are on PubMed. Practice is summarised by the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
