Different nutrient agars have different ingredients in them. Agar itself is a polysaccharide (sugar) composed of galactose. Most agars contain some sort of soybean or lipids and also amino acids. Many contain peptone, which is a mixture of polysaccharides and protein.
The source of nutrients in nutrient agar is typically peptones, beef extract, and agar. These components provide carbon, nitrogen, vitamins, and minerals necessary for the growth of a wide variety of microorganisms.
Peptone in phenylethyl alcohol agar supplies both carbon and nitrogen to support the growth of microorganisms. Peptone is a mixture of partially digested proteins that serve as a nutrient source for microbial growth.
Nutrient agar is a clear pale buff colour.
Nutrient agar is a mixture of peptones, extracts, and agar, which are the sources of nutrients. Peptones provide nitrogen and amino acids, while extracts like beef or yeast extract provide vitamins and minerals. Agar acts as a solidifying agent for the growth medium.
Glycerol yeast extract agar is a medium that enhances the recovery of actinomycetes from soil. Glycerol 5.0 ml Yeast extract 2.0g K2HPO4 (Dipotassium Phosphate) 1.0g Agar 15.0g Distilled water to 1000ml Dissolve the ingredients, boil for 1 minute and then autoclave at 121oC for 15 minutes.

the east extract is the main source of nitrogen in the nutrient broth or agar
Modified Nutrient Glucose Agar media typically contains a complex nutrient base, glucose as a carbon source, and a pH indicator such as bromocresol purple to detect acid production. It may also include peptones, mineral salts, and agar as a solidifying agent. Additional components can be added based on the specific requirements of the experiment or organism being cultured.
Peptone in phenylethyl alcohol agar supplies both carbon and nitrogen to support the growth of microorganisms. Peptone is a mixture of partially digested proteins that serve as a nutrient source for microbial growth.
Peptone is the simplified source of protein and can be readily uptake by the microorganism. In nurtient agar it is the basic component/nutrient after which beef or yeast extract is used which are supplementary nutrients.

Glucose in Plate Count Agar provides a carbon source for microbial growth. It serves as an energy source for bacteria to proliferate and form visible colonies on the agar plate.
Nutrient agar is a mixture of peptones, extracts, and agar, which are the sources of nutrients. Peptones provide nitrogen and amino acids, while extracts like beef or yeast extract provide vitamins and minerals. Agar acts as a solidifying agent for the growth medium.
