Leírás

Általános leírás

Orange Serum Agar is developed specifically to isolate and enumerate the microorganisms that can spoil citrus fruit beverages. Due to its low pH, citrus fruit juices are susceptible to spoilage, mainly by molds, yeasts, and acidophilic bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Leuconostoc. Orange Serum Agar is recommended by APHA for the examination of fruit beverages. Casein peptone and yeast extract provide essential nitrogenous and carbonaceous nutrients and vitamin B complex. Glucose is added as a carbon and energy source. Orange extract generates an optimal environment for the enrichment of acid-tolerant microorganisms from citrus fruit samples. Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate acts as buffering substance.

Alkalmazás

Orange Serum agar is suitable for the isolation, cultivation, and enumeration of acid-tolerant spoilage microorganisms in fruit juice and fruit juice concentrates from citrus fruit.
