Manioc / cassava Agar ?
    #19496593 - 01/30/14 02:04 PM (10 years, 11 months ago)

Hi all !

I'm about to make some more petri dishes and I like to alternate mediums for each transfer. I was about to make some PDA but I'm out of potatoes.

I was wondering if cassave (aka manioc/ tapioca) is a candidate for making agar ? I have it as a fresh root (not processed).

Wikipedia on Cassava


Opinions ?

It will probably work. I didn't have potatoes and made oatmeal dextrose agar. Worked fine. Just don't forget the dextrose.

Well I guess I'll just have to try but I'm kind of limited in plates and transfers I need to work :laugh: Google really doesn't show ANYTHING about it in the whole universe !
