Alazhi was one of the main components of bacta. It was a bacteria grown in a medium of xoorzi fungus in large processing plants, but was also created naturally by the Vratix's secretions. Alazhi came from the planet Thyferra and was grown as a major export on the planet Verkuyl. During the Clone Wars, bacta prices skyrocketed when the Trade Federation falsified a report on an alazhi shortage.
