Product Description
Anaerobic HiVeg® Agar is a specialized medium designed for the cultivation of anaerobic microorganisms. This formulation excludes dextrose and Eh indicators, making it ideal for research requiring precise anaerobic conditions. The HiVeg® base ensures a plant-derived, animal-free composition, suitable for vegan or ethical lab protocols.
This agar supports the growth of strict anaerobes like Clostridium and Bacteroides species, commonly used in clinical microbiology, environmental studies, and industrial applications. The absence of dextrose prevents unwanted fermentation, while the lack of an Eh indicator allows for custom redox potential adjustments.
For researchers and educators, this medium offers consistency and reliability in anaerobic culture techniques. Whether you’re studying gut microbiota or industrial biofuels, Anaerobic HiVeg® Agar provides a stable foundation for your experiments.
