Intended Use
Maximum Recovery Dilutent (Peptone Saline Dilutent) serves as an isotonic medium specifically formulated for the maximum recovery of microorganisms. It is ideal for applications requiring precise microbial analysis and recovery.
Product Summary and Explanation
This innovative diluent merges the nutritious benefits of peptone with the osmotic support provided by physiological saline. Designed with a low concentration of peptone, it stabilizes the pH at 7.0 ± 0.2, effectively reducing the multiplication of organisms during the dilution phase for at least one hour. The isotonic nature of this diluent not only aids in the recovery of microorganisms but also minimizes the physiological shock that typically occurs when microorganisms are inoculated.
The inclusion of peptone in Maximum Recovery Dilutent ensures that viable counts remain accurate, making it an essential tool for reliable quantitative procedures. Empower your laboratory’s microbial analysis with a diluent designed for optimal performance and accuracy.
