Yeast Malt Extract Agar Plates are a ready-to-use solid medium formulated with malt extract, yeast extract, dextrose, and agar. The medium provides carbohydrates, nitrogenous compounds, vitamins, and minerals suitable for cultivation and maintenance of yeasts and filamentous fungi.

Typical applications include isolation of environmental and laboratory yeast and mold strains, propagation of stock cultures, and enumeration of fungal contaminants in samples. Plates are supplied pre-poured in sterile Petri dishes and are used for aerobic incubation at standard fungal culture temperatures.
