Agar Agar has long been used to solidify media for plant tissue culture. The type of agar or gelling agent used can influence the growth of the tissue in culture. Both purity and cost of the gelling agent are important factors in any research or production operation. The major application of Agar Agar is in the field of plant tissue culture due to its high gel strength, excellent transparency and low mineral content. It is used in the preparation of substrates for the cultivation and developments of plants in vitro. The growing interest in tissue culture as a standard method for the propagation of orchids and other ornamental plants, vegetables, fruits and other agricultural products.

Pure and Reliable for Tissue Culture

Agar Agar Plant Tissue Culture Grade offers exceptional clarity and consistency, with less than 0.001% heavy metals and microbial load under 100 CFU/g. The product forms stable gels at low concentrations, enabling precise and reproducible plant propagation in vitro. With loss on drying below 10% and high solid content, the medium maintains optimal growth conditions for successful cultivation.


High Quality Meets Stringent Standards

This grade of Agar Agar is manufactured under strict quality parameters, ensuring bacterial endotoxins remain under 0.25 EU/g, and all batches are free from harmful pathogens like E. coli and Salmonella. The product's fine, odorless powder form and neutral pH (5.5-7.0) make it ideal for sensitive biological applications. Its superior melting range and water solubility guarantee uniform medium preparation every time.
