Culture Media Supplements
We supply an extensive range of dehydrated culture media suitable for most bacteriological procedures. However, some customers prefer to produce their own media to specific formulation criteria. When there is a requirement for media made to a customers own specificationwe are able to supply specific media components to facilitate this practice. Furthermore, you can always be sure that each component is quality controlled to ensure that it is up to standard and has a consistent stabilised property value.
The following section contains a selection of ingredients that are commonly used in the preparation of microbiological culture media. Our standard pack sizes for most items is 100g, 500g, 2.5kg, 5kg, 10kg and 25kg. Most powders can be packed according to customers requirements.
