General description

Tryptic Soy Broth is a universal culture medium free from inhibitors and indicators for a wide spectrum of applications. The Peptones used in the broth are of non-animal origin. The formulation of the basic medium is prepared according to the recommendations of the current European and the United States Pharmacopoeia (EP, 2.6.12. and USP, 61) but contains peptones of non-animal origin instead of the recommended peptones.

Application

Tryptic Soy Broth is suitable for the isolation and cultivation of fastidious aerobic bacteria, yeasts, and molds. The medium is used for sterility testing of substances, preparations, and products as well as a pre-enrichment broth for the test for specified microorganisms.

Features and Benefits

  • Safe and sustainable due to reduced risks associated with fine dust and toxic substance inhalation, resulting in a safer work environment.
  • Excellent wettability, solubility, and free-flowing properties
  • Convenient, with minimal component separation and clumping, even under warm or humid conditions
  • High batch-to-batch reproducibility
  • Prolonged shelf life of up to five years
  • A high number of test strains exceeding all regulatory demands
  • Granulation technology allows many supplements to be included, with no need to add these separately
