PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
L-Broth Agar is a nutritionally rich medium originally developed for growth and maintenance of recombinant E. coli strains. MP Biomedicals offers L-Broth Agar medium in an encapsulated format for convenience and ease of use.
Application Notes
L-Broth is a nutritionally rich medium originally developed for growth and maintenance of E. coli strains. L-Broth supports a luxurious growth of E. coli cells as tryptone and yeast extract supply essential growth factors that E. coli cells would otherwise have to synthesize. The medium also contains essential electrolytes for transport and osmotic balance, due to the NaCl component.
