Preparation of BG-11 media Agar

To make BG-11 Agar plates, add Agar-Agar Type-1 equivalent to 1.5% (w/v) of liquid media and autoclave.

Then before it solidifies (when the flask is bearable to touch), add the required antibiotics to the media.

Pour ~30-40 ml into plates soon after.

Keep the plates opened in the hood.

Once it solidifies in the plates then close those and keep the plates inverted into a cold storage.
