NEOGEN Middlebrook 7H11 Agar, 500 g
Supplier: NEOGEN 700003073
Middlebrook 7H11 Agar is used with glycerol and OADC Enrichment for the cultivation of Mycobacterium spp. in a laboratory setting. Middlebrook 7H11 Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.There are two types of solid culture media for the primary isolation of mycobacteria, coagulated egg as a base (Lowenstein formulations) and an agar base (Middlebrook formulations). The use of agar-based media for primary isolation of mycobacteria have the following significant advantages:Agar-based media do not usually liquefy in the presence of contaminating proteolytic organisms.Agar-based media retain exact concentrations of added drugs because the medium is solidified with agar rather than by inspissation of the egg. There is less drug inactivation when egg ingredients are absent.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/middlebrook-7h11-agar
