Granulated Media by HiMedia – active media with various benefits

Using the combination of high throughput technology of granulation and production of dehydrated culture media, HiMedia produces Granulated Culture Media. Granulated Media is active media and possesses the same qualitative attributes as possessed by Powdered Dehydrated Culture Media. Our media comes with various additional benefits in physical parameters.

Due to different physical characteristics like difference in their particle size, shape and density, the individual components of Dehydrated Culture Media often segregate in transport or handling. Our Granulated Media products from HiMedia deliver uniform consistency, which does not allow segregation and aids in consistent analysis.

In comparison to Powder Media, the flow rate of granular media is better and consistent. Granular Media also prevents caking and bridging issues as often seen with Dehydrated Culture Media. Using Granular Media, one also minimizes the issue of hygroscopy which is often an issue with most of the Culture Media components.

Media aerosols pose a big challenge for microbiologists in the form of handling in Culture Media preparation in addition to health issues as dust or powder is difficult to handle. Allergic responses and other several health issues in various parts of the body can arise due to antibiotics and several other selective agents when used in different media preparations.

In case of powder media, the packaging, storage and transport can be enhanced using the increased bulk density.
HiMedia also offers a wide range of Granulated Media which are ideal for Pharmaceuticals, Clinical, Molecular Biology, Environment Sectors, Cosmetics, Dairy, Water, Food & Meat Industries.
