Ward’s Science gives you the freedom of choice with our 3 micro media agar options. The powder form option is the most cost-effective and requires mixing with water and heating in an autoclave. The heat and pour bottle, a time-efficient option, is microwave-friendly. The pre-poured option (available in plates or tubes) is especially convenient. Whether it’s fungi or bacteria you’re looking to cultivate, we hope your mad scientist needs are satisfied.
