Product Overview
This package contains 100 grams of Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA), designed for growing a wide range of non-fastidious and moderately fastidious bacteria in petri dishes or test tube slants. This versatile medium is perfect for various experiments and science projects, allowing you to practice basic microbiology skills or swab different surfaces to assess microbial levels. To prepare the medium, mix 40 grams with 1 liter of deionized water, bring to a boil while stirring to ensure complete dissolution, autoclave, then pour into petri dishes or culture tubes and allow to cool and solidify. The dehydrated TSA is conveniently stored in a plastic open-mouth bottle, with each bottle yielding 2.5 liters of growth medium.
