Microbiology media facilitate the detection, isolation, and cultivation of microorganism colonies. Culture media additives and supplements enhance the growth capability of specific organisms. Prepared nutrient broths help establish the complex environment that even fastidious organisms require. Containing the nutritional elements that enable cells to multiply, the predetermined substance quantities add additional control to tests. Choose the gel or liquid microbiology media that is most compatible with working cell types.
