Description

General description

Sodium Chloride peptone broth is designed as a general diluent used for microbial examination of non-sterile pharmaceutical products. The low peptone concentration maintains viability without promoting growth. Presence of Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance of the medium and ensures cell integrity.
The neutral pH range is optimum for the viability of microorganisms′ present. The medium aims at maximum recovery of microorganisms present in the test sample.

Application

Sodium Chloride peptone broth is used as a protective and isotonic diluent for various microbiological test methods. The medium is used to maintain viability of the microorganisms present in the test sample.
