Agar B is natural product derived from seaweed. During the production process all impurities are carefully removed to obtain an agar with a high gel strength, excellent clarity and low mineral content.
Application Notes
Agar B demonstrates a superior ability to promote bacterial colony growth (colony diameter after 24 and 48 hours) and phage growth (plaque diameter and morphology of both M13 and Lambda bacteriophages).
