Nutrient Agar Plates

Materials

You will need:

  • Deionized water
  • Tryptone
  • NaCl
  • Yeast Extract
  • Agar

Procedure

  • Combine 10g tryptone, 5g yeast extract, 10g NaCl, 15g agar, and 950 mL of deionized water into a large beaker/Erlenmeyer flask.
  • Mix until dissolved using a stir bar.
  • Check to see if the pH is 7.0 using a pH meter. If needed, add 5N NaOH to adjust the pH to 7.0.
  • Fill solution to 1L with deionized water.
  • Autoclave.
  • Let it cool, but not cool enough to let it solidify. It is recommended to keep it in 45 degree waterbath.
  • Add the appropriate amount of antibiotic of your choice. Recommended amounts are posted on openwetware. Allow it mix properly.
  • Pour into sterilized plates.
