High concentration agar is difficult to work with.

  • Tends to boil over, so needs a lot of water in the autoclave pan
  • Hard to get into solution - frequently needs re-autoclaving
  • So viscous that bubbles don't rise to the surface

So

  • mix the ingredients that can't be autoclaved in as little water as possible
  • Only use high concentration stock solutions for micro-ingredients

Sunrise Science 1330-030


4X will dissolve. Almost completely clear after overnight stirring. Crystal clear after autoclaving.


From the manufacturer:

Commonly added to YNB, nitrogen and glucose, at suggested g/L, for a complete yeast media. Mix with stirring for 10-15 minutes, and filter sterilize or autoclave at 121°C for 15 minutes. To prepare plates, autoclave agar separately and add to sterile medium, or add agar to liquid medium and adjust to pH 5.8-6.0 before autoclaving.

Suggested g/L: 1.64

Storage Temperature: 2-8 C


Jeff's recipe: 10X SC –AHLT 16.4 g/L

Dissolve 16.4 g of Sunrise Science SC –Adenine, –Histidine, –Leucine and –Tryptophan in 1 L distilled water and filter sterilize.

Store in the dark at 4 ˚C.

Will not go into solution.
