Nourisi ® Agar CAS 9002-18-0, appears as a grayish-white to pale yellow powder or translucent elongated strip, odorless or with a slight characteristic smell, and has a mucilaginous taste. It is insoluble in cold water but soluble in hot water, capable of absorbing more than 20 times its weight in water. Its aqueous solution melts at 85-95°C and forms an elastic, transparent gel upon cooling to 28-42°C, with a gel strength of typically 800-1200 g/cm² at 1.5% concentration. This unique thermoreversible gelation property makes it widely applicable in microbiological culture media, food processing, and pharmaceutical industries.

Nourisi ® Agar CAS 9002-18-0, serves as a solidifying agent for preparing bacterial culture media (e.g., LB, MacConkey) and plant tissue culture media, typically used at a concentration of 1.5-2%.
In the food industry, it functions as a thickener, gelling agent, stabilizer, and emulsifier (E406) in products such as jellies, soft candies, ice cream, and canned meats.
In pharmaceutical applications, it is employed as a suspending agent for barium meal contrast imaging, as well as in laxatives, capsule matrices, and lubricants.
Nourisi ® Agar CAS 9002-18-0, forms thermoreversible gels with high strength and transparency, allowing easy processing and stable product texture.
It is odorless, tasteless, and stable across wide pH ranges, making it compatible with diverse food and pharmaceutical formulations without affecting sensory properties.
Derived from natural seaweed, it meets clean-label demands and offers good microbial resistance for extended shelf-life.
Nourisi® Agar CAS 9002-18-0, strictly adheres to China National Standard GB1886.239-2016; nevertheless, users must independently verify compliance with prevailing local regulations, especially those enforced in the destination country where the product will ultimately be consumed.
