Agar is of high purity, low ionic content, and low gel strength widely used in microbiology as a solidifying agent in microbial culture media. It is a polysaccharide derived from seaweed and is primarily composed of agarose. Agar is a mostly inert substance, which makes it an ideal material for microbial culture media because it doesn’t interfere with the growth of microorganisms. Agar can solidify media, allowing microorganisms to grow in a solid environment, which facilitates the formation of distinct colonies and selective isolation of specific microorganisms. Agar is also used in the preparation of selective and differential media, which can provide additional nutrients or other chemical substances to promote or inhibit the growth of specific microorganisms selectively. Agar is sterilized by autoclaving and then poured into Petri dishes, where it can cool and solidify, forming the surface for microbial growth.

Agar is commonly used as a solidifying agent in many microbial culture media for the growth and identification of bacteria, yeasts and molds from various pharmaceutical, environmental, food and beverage samples.
Arylamine N-acetyltransferase-1 (NAT1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the biotransformation of arylamine and hydrazine substrates. It also has a role in the catabolism of the folate metabolite p-aminobenzoyl glutamate. Recent bioinformatics studies have correlated NAT1 expression with various cancer subtypes.

CHROMagar Yersinia (CAY) is a new chromogenic medium for the presumptive detection of virulent Yersinia enterocolitica in stools. Based on a comparative analysis of 1,494 consecutive stools from hospitalized patients, CAY was found to be just as sensitive as the
Porous agar materials have been prepared from marine macroalgae species using a simple microwave-assisted extraction/drying methodology, providing a new family of polysaccharide derived porous solids. The microwave-assisted extraction allows a more efficient and less time-consuming extraction of the polysaccharide compared

Study the influence of low temperature (cold) electrolyte plasma (CEP) on survivability of some mycoplasma strains growing in agar as well as mycoplasma that most frequently contaminate transplantable human cell lines of normal and malignant origin with the aim of
Culture media provides a habitat with suitable nutrients, energy sources, and certain environmental conditions for the growth of microorganisms. The components of the culture media range from simple sugars to peptones, salts, antibiotics, and complex indicators.
