Prepared agar plates for the rapid growth of bacteria for isolation and selection bring benefits of sterile packaging, consistency, time saving, and convenience
Sigma-Aldrich says its new line of pre-poured agar plates will allow researchers the benefit of sterile packaging, lot-to-lot consistency, and time saving convenience.
In addition to LB and LB Ampicillin Agar, Sigma-Aldrich will offer custom plates covering a wide range of media formulations and antibiotics. Pre-poured agar plates eliminate the need for mixing various components, autoclaving, pouring and cooling the plates.
This provides the ultimate in convenience and efficiency for the researcher.
Each lot of plates is tested with several E coli strains to ensure the highest quality and performance.
"At Sigma-Aldrich we are committed to providing products that offer the ultimate in performance and convenience.
"Pre-poured agar plates exemplify that commitment.
"Our offering will include laboratory staples, such as LB and LB Amp, as well as custom formulations.
"Pre-poured plates will save time and money for any research lab," commented Keith Jolliff, marketing manager of molecular biology at Sigma-Aldrich.
