Minimal Glucose Agar is used for the microbial mutagenicity Ames test. It is a bacterial bioassay performed in vitro to evaluate the mutagenicity of various environmental carcinogens and toxins. The principle is to detect point mutations using amino acid requiring strains. The Minimal Glucose Agar plate is taken as a bottom agar for the mutagenicity assay and includes the minimum ingredients for bacterial growth. Phosphates act as the buffering system. Glucose and Citrate are the carbon sources to produce energy. Magnesium is a cofactor for many metabolic reactions
