Abstract
La finalidad de este estudio fue evaluar la productividad del agar-agar obtenido a nivel de laboratorio de dos especies de algas rojas del género Gracilaria provenientes de la costa Caribe de Colombia (G. cylindrica y G. mammillaris). La productividad del medio de cultivo elaborado con base agar - agar se determinó utilizando el método ecométrico con 20 especies bacterianas diferentes. Los valores del índice de crecimiento absoluto (ICA) e índice de crecimiento relativo (ICR) obtenidos mostraron que el agar base Gracilaria mammillaris y Gracilaria cylindrica son igualmente productivos, con lo cual se demuestra que ambas especies se pueden utilizar en la producción de agar.
