Description
M 17 Agar is a dehydrated culture medium supplied for microbiological laboratory applications involving lactic acid bacteria and related organisms. Presented as a 5000 g pack, it is intended for preparation of solid growth media used in research, quality control and production-support laboratories that work with streptococci and other lactic cultures under defined conditions. The medium is a recognised M 17-type agar base for plate and colony work when reconstituted and processed according to the laboratory’s validated media-preparation protocols. This bulk 5000 g unit from manufacturer Dinkelberg supports high-throughput media kitchens and central preparation units that require consistent powder supply and straightforward batch weighing. Originating from Hungary, the product belongs to the standard laboratory culture-media range and is intended for professional laboratory use only. Facilities can incorporate M 17 Agar into existing media production schedules, dairy and food microbiology workflows, and teaching or method-development activities while retaining established plating procedures. The large pack size favours economical preparation of numerous plates or bottles from a single container and simplifies inventory management through clear product identification and documentation.
This article is part of Dehydrated culture media (agar & broth bases), in Culture media & microbiology. See also Petri dishes.

Questions about M 17 Agar, 5000g
What is this article?
M 17 Agar, 5000g 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 Milieux microbiologiques.
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.
