Alkali Scientific EF 18 Agar 24mL Plate, 10/Pk
EF 18 Agar is a selective and differential culture medium used for detecting Salmonella species in food, environmental, and water samples. Each sterile petri dish contains approximately 24mL of nutrient agar supplemented with sucrose, lysine, bile salts, and indicator dyes including bromothymol blue. The medium differentiates organisms based on sucrose fermentation and lysine decarboxylation reactions. Salmonella species typically do not ferment sucrose but can decarboxylate lysine, producing characteristic blue green colonies on the agar surface. In contrast, many non Salmonella bacteria ferment sucrose and generate acid, resulting in yellow colonies and surrounding medium. EF 18 agar is frequently used in membrane filtration methods and rapid detection workflows where reliable identification of Salmonella is required.

Agar, High Gel Strength, Powder, 100 Grams: A high-quality agar medium with superior gel strength, perfect for the cultivation of bacteria and other microorganisms in laboratory settings. This powdered agar is used for preparing solid media in microbiological experiments and is essential for ensuring optimal bacterial growth conditions. Its high gel strength makes it perfect for applications where firm agar is needed to support bacterial cultures, ensuring accurate results in research.
Alkali Scientific Fluid Thioglycollate Medium w/o Indole w/Hemin & Vitamin K 5mL, 10/Pk
Fluid Thioglycollate Medium enriched with hemin and vitamin K is designed for the cultivation of fastidious anaerobic bacteria. These added growth factors support organisms that cannot synthe essential compounds required for metabolism. The medium lacks certain indicators that may interfere with sensitive organisms, improving recovery rates of clinically important anaerobes. It is commonly used in clinical microbiology for isolating bacteria from infections where oxygen sensitive organisms are present. The enriched formulation ensures reliable growth of demanding species and supports accurate diagnosis and laboratory testing.
Alkali Scientific Lactobacilli MRS Agar, 500 G
Lactobacilli MRS Agar, 500 G, is specifically formulated for the growth of Lactobacillus species, which are essential for the fermentation of dairy products and other food items.

It is an excellent medium for studying the characteristics and growth patterns of Lactobacillus strains.
Alkali Scientific EMB Agar (Levine), 20 mL, 100 × 15 mm Plate, 10/Pk
EMB Agar (Levine), 20 mL, 100 × 15 mm Plate, 10/Pk is ideal for the cultivation of enteric bacteria. This medium contains bile salts, which inhibit the growth of non-enteric organisms, while providing ideal conditions for the growth of E. coli and other coliforms. The 20mL plates come pre-poured and ready to use for microbiological testing.
Alkali Scientific Indole Broth 4mL Tube, 10/Pk
Indole Broth, commonly referred to as Tryptone Water, is a biochemical test medium used to determine the ability of microorganisms to produce indole from the amino acid tryptophan. Each tube contains 4mL of nutrient broth rich in tryptophan containing peptones that serve as substrates for bacterial metabolism. Organisms possessing the enzyme tryptophanase break down tryptophan to produce indole, pyruvic acid, and ammonia during incubation. After incubation, the presence of indole is detected by adding Kovac’s or Ehrlich’s reagent, which reacts with indole to produce a characteristic red layer at the liquid surface. A positive reaction indicates organisms such as Escherichia coli or Proteus vulgaris, while negative reactions remain yellow or unchanged. This test is an essential component of the IMViC series used to differentiate Enterobacteriaceae.
Alkali Scientific Horse Blood Overlay Bilayer, Plate, 10/Pk
Horse Blood Overlay Agar (Bilayer) is an enriched culture medium designed to improve visualization of hemolytic reactions and support the growth of fastidious microorganisms. Each plate features a two layer design consisting of a nutrient rich base agar layer and a thin overlay containing 5–7% defibrinated horse blood. This bilayer structure enhances contrast, allowing hemolysis zones produced by bacterial colonies to be observed more clearly than on standard blood agar plates. Horse blood is often preferred for certain diagnostic applications because it lacks the enzyme NADase, preserving essential growth factors such as Factor V required by organisms like Haemophilus species. The medium supports isolation and differentiation of hemolytic bacteria by producing clear alpha or beta hemolytic reactions, making it useful in clinical microbiology and diagnostic laboratories.
Alkali Scientific Agar, Granulated, High Gel Strength, 1 Kg
Agar, Granulated, High Gel Strength, 1 Kg, is a high-quality agar product used to prepare solid culture media for microbiological and biotechnological research.
