Nutrient Agar

Nutrient-Agar

Overview

Nutrient Agar, a foundational medium in microbiology, was first formulated by the American Public Health Association in 1917. Recognizing the need for a standardized medium for examining various substances, including water, wastewater, food, and dairy products, the APHA established this formulation. Nutrient Agar's significance endures, as it remains a specified medium in contemporary microbiological examination protocols for a wide range of materials. Furthermore, it serves as a valuable resource for the cultivation and maintenance of non-fastidious microorganisms.

Intended Use

For general purpose medium used for the cultivation and enumeration of a wide range of bacteria in various samples, including water, sewage, faeces, and other materials.
