substrate for bacterial colonies

[ChuCDJK]

I need some advice on recipes for agar.  I will be raising colonies of E.
coli, strain C600, which have been infected with parental lambda-gt10
phage, and testing the phenotype of the infected bacteria..
The recipe which had been recommended to me is as follows: 15 g
Bacto-agar, 10 g Bacto-tryptone, 5 g Bacto-yeast extract, 5 g NaCl per
liter water, adjusted to pH 7.5 with NaOH.

I was wondering whether I could use the following recipe instead: 15 g
Bacto-agar, 5 g Bacto-peptone, 5 g Bacto-beef extract.  Would the second
recipe be suitable for my purposes?

Thanks in advance
