Alazhi was one of the main components of bacta. It was a bone white bacterium grown in a medium of xoorzi fungus in large processing plants. Alazhi came from the planet Thyferra[1] and was grown as a major export on the planet Verkuyl.[2]
During the Clone Wars, bacta prices skyrocketed when the Trade Federation falsified a report on an alazhi shortage.[3]
