Description
OGA Agar (Base) is a culture-medium base prepared for microbiology laboratory use. This base formulation is intended for preparing OGA agar media in routine and research microbiological workflows where a dedicated agar base is required. It is offered in a practical 500 g pack size suited to media preparation benches and central media kitchens. The product supports standard nutrient-media work in which an OGA agar base is specified as the starting material. Supplied from manufacturer Carl ROTH, it fits established microbiology reagent ranges used alongside complementary supplements and selective additives. Laboratories can incorporate the base into validated media recipes according to their internal protocols and quality systems. Clear identification as OGA Agar (Base) helps maintain traceability from goods receipt through media preparation and batch documentation. The 500 g unit quantity is convenient for both occasional preparation and higher-throughput media production without unnecessary overstocking of opened containers.
This article is part of Dehydrated culture media (agar & broth bases), in Culture media & microbiology. See also Petri dishes.

Questions about OGA Agar (Base)
What is this article?
OGA Agar (Base) 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 Microbiologie.
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.
