Nutrient Agar: composition, preparation and uses 4.58/5 (19) Nutrient agar is used as a general purpose medium for the growth of a wide variety of non-fastidious microorganisms. It consists of peptone, beef extract and agar. This relatively simple formulation provides the nutrients necessary for the replication of a large number of non-fastidious microorganisms.
Dissolved in boiling water and cooled, laboratory agar looks gelatinous. Although agar's chief use is as a culture medium for various microorganisms, particularly for bacteria, its other less well-known uses include serving as a thickening for soups and sauces, in jellies and ice cream, in cosmetics, for clarifying beverages, and for sizing fabrics.
