Bacto Agar is a solidifying agent in which extraneous matter, pigmented portions and salts have been reduced to a minimum. Bacto Agar is used in preparing microbiological culture media.

Bacto Agar is optimized for beneficial calcium and magnesium content. Detrimental ions such as iron and copper are reduced. Bacto Agar is recommended for clinical applications, auxotrophic studies, bacterial and yeast transformation studies and bacterial molecular genetics applications.
