European Bacteriological Agar is a high-quality agar intended for use as a gelling agent in microbiological culture media. It provides a stable, transparent gel suitable for cultivation of bacteria and other microorganisms when combined with appropriate nutrients. The product is widely used in routine microbiology, research laboratories and quality-control applications.
European Bacteriological Agar (catalogue No. 1800) is a purified agar intended for use as a solidifying agent in the preparation of microbiological culture media. It is obtained from selected marine algae and processed to ensure consistent gelling properties, clarity and low impurity content.
The agar does not provide nutrients by itself and must be combined with suitable culture media components depending on the intended application. Once dissolved and cooled, it forms a firm, stable gel that supports reliable growth and observation of microorganisms. European Bacteriological Agar is suitable for routine laboratory use, research applications and quality control.
