Blood Agar Base with Low pH (500gm) by HiMedia is a high-quality microbiological culture medium designed for the isolation and cultivation of fastidious pathogenic microorganisms. Laboratories commonly use this medium as a basal agar for preparing blood agar plates by adding sterile defibrinated blood.
This specialized formulation has a low pH of approximately 6.8, which helps stabilize red blood cells and improves the visualization of hemolytic reactions. As a result, microbiologists can easily observe clear hemolysis zones produced by organisms such as Streptococcus and Neisseria. Therefore, this medium plays an important role in clinical microbiology and diagnostic laboratories.
Additionally, laboratories can use the medium without adding blood as a general-purpose culture medium. Because of its balanced nutrient composition, it supports the growth of a wide range of microorganisms.
Optimized Low pH (6.8) – Stabilizes red blood corpuscles and enhances hemolysis detection
Ideal Basal Medium – Used for preparing blood agar by adding sterile blood
Supports Fastidious Microorganisms – Suitable for organisms like Neisseria and Streptococci
Clear Hemolysis Observation – Helps identify alpha, beta, and gamma hemolysis
High-Quality Microbiological Media – Manufactured by HiMedia
Versatile Laboratory Use – Can also function as a general-purpose medium

Blood Agar Base with Low pH is widely used in clinical microbiology, diagnostic laboratories, and research facilities.
Common applications include:
Isolation of fastidious pathogens from clinical samples
Cultivation of Streptococci and Pneumococci
Observation of hemolytic reactions on blood agar plates
Detection of phosphate-producing staphylococci when used with phenolphthalein phosphate
Determination of the salinity range of marine Flavobacteria
Preparation of Salmonella Typhi antigens
Furthermore, the medium provides excellent nutrient support for many bacterial species when used with or without blood supplementation.
Dissolve the required amount of dehydrated medium in distilled water.
Heat with gentle stirring until the powder completely dissolves.
Sterilize by autoclaving at 121°C for 15 minutes.
Cool the medium to 45–50°C and aseptically add sterile defibrinated blood if preparing blood agar plates.
Mix gently and pour into sterile Petri dishes.
Store the container tightly closed in a cool and dry environment.
Protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
Use prepared media promptly for best microbiological results.
✅ Ideal for: clinical laboratories, microbiology research labs, hospitals, universities, pharmaceutical laboratories, and diagnostic centers.
