N2 - Tryptic soy broth/agar, brain heart infusion agar and Columbia broth/agar, all widely used in the bacteriological laboratory, were radiation‐sterilized at a dose of 10–15 kGy. The media were tested for the growth of 12 different micro‐organisms, including fastidious pathogens such as Streptococcus pyogenes, Strep, pneumonias, Haemophilus influenzas and Neisseria meningitidis. Solid and fluid media supplemented with catalase before irradiation performed well in comparison with heat‐sterilized media.
