R2A, Petri Dish Type (CAT#: STEM-CC-4301-LC)

Cat Number: STEM-CC-4301-LC

Application: For accurate microbial counts in water samples

Model: MO3060




Description

R2A Agar is a low-nutrient culture medium specifically designed for the enumeration of heterotrophic microorganisms in process water and treated potable water. Its reduced nutrient content promotes the recovery of slow-growing, stressed, and chlorine-tolerant bacteria, making it the standard medium for microbial plate count testing in water quality analysis.
