Product Description
Coagulase Mannitol Agar Base is a specialized microbiological medium designed for the selective isolation and differentiation of Staphylococcus species. This agar base, when supplemented with appropriate additives, supports the growth of Staphylococcus aureus while inhibiting other bacteria. It is widely used in clinical and research laboratories for coagulase testing and mannitol fermentation studies.
The medium contains mannitol as the primary carbohydrate source, allowing for the differentiation of Staphylococcus aureus (mannitol fermenter) from other staphylococci. The addition of sodium chloride enhances selectivity, while the agar base provides a solid foundation for colony growth and observation.
Whether you’re a student, researcher, or educator, this high-quality agar base ensures reliable results in your experiments. Need a trusted supplier for lab media? Buy Coagulase Mannitol Agar Base online from eqipped for guaranteed quality and fast delivery.
