Answer:Heterotrophic bacterial counts in water, including drinking-water and suitable pharmaceutical-water monitoring.
Answer:Its reduced nutrient concentration favors recovery of some stressed or slow-growing waterborne bacteria.
Answer:18.2 g of dehydrated medium per litre of water.
GranuCult R2A Agar is a low-nutrient dehydrated culture medium intended for recovery and enumeration of heterotrophic bacteria from water samples. Its reduced nutrient strength is useful for bacteria that can be stressed by disinfectant exposure or by nutrient-rich conditions, including organisms encountered in drinking-water monitoring. The medium also supports microbiological monitoring of purified water and water for injection when used in appropriate pharmacopoeial procedures. R2A Agar is supplied as 500 g of granules, not prepared plates, and is commonly made up at 18.2 g per litre of purified water before sterilization. A suitable incubation method may use longer periods and lower temperatures than conventional rich-media plate counts. The medium supports enumeration of recoverable organisms and does not by itself identify individual microbial species.
