Brain Heart Infusion Agar (BHI) 20mL, 15x100mm Plates, 10/Pk

Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) Agar 20mL Plates, 10/Pk is an enriched, nonselective medium formulated to support the growth of a wide variety of microorganisms, including fastidious bacteria, yeasts, and molds. Derived from infusions of brain and heart tissue, the medium provides a rich nutrient base that promotes robust growth of organisms that may not thrive on standard culture media.

BHI Agar is commonly used in clinical diagnostics, food and water microbiology, and research applications where broad-spectrum cultivation is required. It is particularly valuable for the recovery and maintenance of pathogenic bacteria such as Streptococcus, Neisseria, and Haemophilus species. Each plate is pre-poured with 20mL of sterile agar to ensure consistent depth and reliable growth conditions.

Key Features:

• Enriched nonselective medium for a broad range of organisms
• Supports growth of fastidious bacteria, yeasts, and molds
• Ideal for Streptococcus, Neisseria, Haemophilus, and other pathogens
• 20mL pre-poured plates for consistency and reproducibility
