Introduction:
This medium contains high calcium level which may inhibit many gellan gums from completely melting during autoclaving. For this reason the use of Gellan Gum and Agargellan with this medium is not recommended as a clear, firm gel may not be obtained.
Contains the macro- and micronutrients as described by Quoirin & Lepoivre (1977) and Quoirin, et al. (1977).
