LB agar medium is a nutritionally rich medium originally developed for growth and maintenance of E. coli strains. The ultimate in ease and convenience, LB agar medium in a capsule form eliminates the waste, inaccuracies, and mess associated with weighing out bulk powder.The growth characteristics are the same as LB agar powder. LB agar medium supports a luxurious growth of E. coli cells as tryptone and yeast extract supply essential growth factors that E. coli cells would otherwise have to synthesise. The medium also contains essential electrolytes for transport and osmotic balance, due to the NaCl component.

Application includes: Bacteria cell culture, gene expression, transformation, microbiological analysis, protein expression.
