DEHYDRATED OXBILE is prepared in a low temperature dehydration process. It is used as a selective inhibitory agent in culture media such as Brilliant Green Bile 2%.
GELATIN PEPTONE is a pancreatic digest of porcine skin. Is used in culture media especially for non-fastidious microorganisms and in fermentation studies.
MEAT PEPTONE is an enzymatic digest of animal tissue. It can be incorporated into a variety of liquid and solid culture media formulations for cultivation of fastidious and nonfastidious microorganisms.
POLYPEPTONE is a mixture of peptones made up of equal parts of pancreatic digest of casien and peptic digest of animal tissue. It can bde used in general culture media as a superior source of nutrients. The growth of some microorganisms may be better than when the individual peptones are used.
PROTEOSE PEPTONE is commonly used in the preparation of culture media for the production of toxin, and in the fermentation industry for starter cultures. It is a highly nutritious source for the growth of a wide range of microorganisms.
BILE SALTS No 3 is a mixture of bile extracts especially prepared for use selective media such as Mac Conkey LAB-AGAR™ (PS 10), Salmonella Shigella LAB-AGAR™ (PS 17). It is excellent inhibitor of Gram – positive bacteria such as Streptococci and Staphylococci.
SOY PEPTONE is used in culture media for the cultivation of a wide variety of microorganisms including bacteria and fungi. It is an excellent source of vitamins and carbohydrates.
TRYPTOSE is a mixed enzymatic hydrolysate with distinctive nutritional properties. It is used to grow many fastidious microorganisms such as Brucella, Streptococcus and Neisseria.
HEART INFUSION is a specially formulated preparation of dried infusion from bovine hearts. It is supplied as a light, fine powder for use in microbiological culture media.
LACTOALBUMIN HYDROLYSATE is the enzymatically hydrolysed protein portion of milk whey. It is used for preparing bacterial, insect and mammalian cell culture media.
MALT EXTRACT is parcticularly well suited for cultivating yeasts and molds, allowing the sporulation of molds such as Aspergillus and Penicillium. Malt Extract provides carbon, protein and nutrients in culture media.
PROTEOSE PEPTONE No 3 is a high quality hydrolysate produced by the enzymatic digestion of animal tissues. It is widely used in culture media and has been used extensively in the manufacture of toxins, vaccines, enzymes and other biological products.
MYCOLOGICAL PEPTONE is a mixture of peptones with a high carbohydrate content suitable for the rapid growth and colonial development of yeasts and moulds. Bacterial growth is inhibited by the low pH of this peptone.
GELATINE is a collagenous protein used for the solidification of culture media and for the detection and differentiation of certain proteolytic bacteria.
