DrMyc Platemate High Contrast Agar

Couldn’t be more impressed with how well all of Dr Myc’s products have performed so far. The quality and ease of use is amazing. This company is providing things that are making me a better mycologist every time I use them and I’m grateful for how affordable it is. The time and money I have saved because of superior quality has ensured I’ll be a customer for life. Thank you Dr Myc!

Worked perfectly. Mycologists buy this for sure.

Growth rates were just as good or better than the pre-sterilized Nutrient Agar I have used in the past.I like the high contrast even more than I expected.Comes with clear instructions. Good for the money, This will give you at least 5 times the plates as the pre-sterilized stuff at the same price.I made and sterilized it ahead of time, storing it in a borosilicate media bottle.So I had to re-heat it after sterilization in order to pour my plates. I used a hot water bath as I normally do, set to constant temp.When I went to pour my plates, it was still pretty kinda chunky, even though I had it warming for quite some time. It didn't noticably affect growth.I'm guessing I just need to warm it more thoroughly next time... Cause all Agar can be liquified again from solid, right??

This stuff provides the best medium I’ve personally used to grow and test things on. Great company and totally worth the investment. In fact I bought 3 more of their products including the liquid culture, gypsum, and the MGP +. I have been beyond pleased with the products. I don’t know how customer service is but I’m sure it’s wonderful given the over all quality and effort put into the product.
