Blood Agar Plates (Tryptic Soy Agar with 5% Sheep Blood) are a widely used, enriched microbiological medium ideal for cultivating and differentiating a broad range of bacterial species, including fastidious pathogens. Each sterile, pre-poured 100 x 15mm petri dish contains 20mL of TSA enriched with 5% defibrinated sheep blood, supporting the growth of Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and other clinically relevant organisms.
These Blood Agar Plates allow for clear visualization of alpha (α), beta (β), and gamma (γ) hemolysis—key for pathogen identification in clinical and research applications. The plates are commonly used in hospitals, diagnostic labs, research centers, and pharmaceutical QC environments.
This product is a direct swap for Hardy Diagnostics A10 Blood Agar Plates, providing full functional and performance equivalency with competitive pricing and reliable supply.
Each pack includes 10 individually sealed, gamma-irradiated plates to ensure sterility. The 20mL fill provides a deep, even surface for consistent colony growth, and the optically clear plate allows for easy inspection and documentation.
