Microorganism's growth mediums are a basic tool in the field of clinical analysis and research, being increasingly more specific and costly over time. The phytopharmaceutical experimentation center proposes a viable and economical alternative using Avena Sativa and Agar base as basic nutrients for the growth and development of microorganisms. Due to the presence of carbohydrates, peptone and sodium chloride in the agar, the growth of Gram positive bacteria and fungi was inhibited with the addition ofhydroalcoholic extracts of Origanum vulgare and Aloysia citrodora. In this way it is possible to develop the specific growth of E. coli strains in a natural culture medium, which can be within the reach ofany clinical laboratory in rural or metropolitan areas.
