Phenylehanol Agar (PEA), 15x100mm, 10/pk

Phenylethyl Alcohol (PEA) Agar, 15x100mm, 10/Pk is a selective medium formulated for the isolation of Gram-positive organisms, particularly Staphylococcus and Streptococcus species, from mixed clinical or environmental specimens. The presence of phenylethyl alcohol inhibits the growth of Gram-negative bacteria, allowing for clearer recovery and differentiation of Gram-positive cocci.

PEA Agar is commonly used in clinical diagnostics, research, and quality control laboratories to recover Gram-positive bacteria from specimens where Gram-negative flora may otherwise overgrow. Each plate is pre-poured with a consistent depth of sterile agar to ensure reproducible growth and reliable diagnostic performance.

Key Features:

• Selective medium for Gram-positive bacteria
• Inhibits Gram-negative organisms for clearer isolation
• Ideal for Staphylococcus and Streptococcus species
• 15x100mm pre-poured plates ensure consistent growth conditions
• Supplied in packs of 10 for routine laboratory use
• Suitable for clinical diagnostics, research, and microbiology workflows
