Product Description
Yeast Extract Agar for Microbiology & Laboratory Use in Bangladesh
Yeast Extract Agar (HiMedia Code: M556) is a premier general-purpose microbiological culture medium widely utilized in industrial quality control, environmental microbiology, and academic research. Engineered specifically to support the luxuriant growth and enumeration of yeasts, molds, and various non-fastidious bacteria, it plays an indispensable role in testing dairy products, fermented goods, processed foods, and public water supplies across food safety testing units, pharmaceutical quality assurance facilities, and university biotechnology laboratories throughout Bangladesh.
Cultivating diverse microbial flora, especially fungi and fastidious heterotrophs, requires a nutrient-rich substrate enriched with natural B-complex vitamins, amino acids, and growth factors. Yeast Extract Agar achieves this by combining enzymatic digest of casein (peptone) and high-grade yeast extract as primary carbon, nitrogen, and vitamin sources, suspended in a firm bacteriological agar matrix (typically prepared at 24.0 g/L). The resulting prepared plates provide an optimal, nutrient-dense environment that promotes rapid colony development and effortless microscopic or visual enumeration.
Supplied as a free-flowing, homogeneous cream-to-yellow dehydrated powder, it dissolves efficiently in distilled water and autoclaves to a clear to slightly opalescent gel that resists tearing during loop streaking. Victor Scientific Co. supplies authentic HiMedia culture media, analytical reagents, and laboratory apparatus nationwide with batch traceability and dependable delivery across all 64 districts of Bangladesh.
✹ Key Features
Authentic HiMedia Quality (Code: M556)
Manufactured to stringent international microbiological benchmarks, ensuring consistent vitamin enrichment and reproducible microbial recovery.
Nutrient-Rich Yeast Extract Formula
Blends high-grade yeast extract and peptone digests to supply abundant B-complex vitamins, amino acids, and trace minerals for robust fungal and bacterial growth.
Versatile Enumeration Medium
Ideal for total viable counts, plate count assays, and general cultivation of yeasts, molds, and environmental microorganisms.
Smooth Gel Surface & High Clarity
Forms a resilient, uniform gel foundation that resists furrowing during streak inoculation and provides distortion-free optical clarity.
Convenient Preparation Ratio
Requires suspending 24.0 grams in 1,000 ml of purified distilled water, boiling to dissolve completely, and autoclaving at 121°C for 15 minutes.
Moisture-Resistant HDPE Packaging
Packaged in a 500-gram hermetically sealed container designed to safeguard the dehydrated powder against ambient humidity and degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A1
The price of Yeast Extract Agar HiMedia M556 (500g pack) in Bangladesh typically ranges between BDT 7,500 and BDT 9,800, depending on import batch and foreign exchange rates. Contact Victor Scientific Co. directly for exact institutional quotes and bulk availability.
Q2
What is the primary difference between Nutrient Agar and Yeast Extract Agar?
A2
While Nutrient Agar uses beef extract and peptone as a general base, Yeast Extract Agar provides a much higher concentration of natural B-complex vitamins and growth factors from yeast autolysate, making it superior for cultivating yeasts, molds, and fastidious organisms.
Q3
What is the preparation ratio for Yeast Extract Agar powder?
A3
Suspend 24.0 grams of dehydrated powder in 1,000 ml of purified distilled water, heat with frequent agitation to dissolve completely, and autoclave at 15 psi (121°C) for 15 minutes. Cool to 45°C–50°C before pouring into sterile Petri dishes.
Q4
What is the final pH of prepared Yeast Extract Agar?
A4
The standardized final pH of the prepared medium is 7.2 ± 0.2 at 25°C.
Q5
Does Victor Scientific Co. deliver culture media safely across Bangladesh?
A5
Yes, Victor Scientific Co. packages all culture media bottles in protective cushioning and moisture-barrier cartons, ensuring rapid courier delivery to all 64 districts in Bangladesh—including Chattogram, Rajshahi, Khulna, and Sylhet—within 24 to 48 hours.
