Intended Use
Peptone Water is specifically designed for the cultivation of non-fastidious microorganisms, enabling accurate indole testing and serving as a basal medium for carbohydrate fermentation studies.
Product Summary and Explanation
Peptone Water is recognized as a minimal growth medium that facilitates the cultivation of non-fastidious organisms. Its non-selective nature makes it an ideal choice for biochemical assays, particularly for carbohydrate fermentation patterns and indole production.
This medium can be effectively used with a 1% final carbohydrate concentration paired with phenol red (0.018 g/L) as an indicator, along with a Durham tube, to conduct precise fermentation studies. The formulation meets stringent quality standards for laboratory use, ensuring reliable results for microbial assays.
Key Features:
- Non-selective growth medium suitable for diverse microorganisms.
- Enables accurate testing for indole and carbohydrate fermentation.
- Compatible with phenol red as a pH indicator for clear results.
- Facilitates study of fermentation patterns in microbiology.
Specifications:
- Formulation Type: Minimal growth medium
- Intended Organisms: Non-fastidious microorganisms
- Final Carbohydrate Concentration: 1% with phenol red (0.018 g/L) indicator.
- Durham Tube: Recommended for capturing gas in fermentation studies.
For reliable cultivation and precise testing, Peptone Water is an essential medium that meets the needs of microbiological research and testing environments.
