Description

General description

Fluid Thioglycolate Medium is a universal complex medium with thioglycollate and L-Cystine to reduce the redox potential of the culture medium and create an anaerobic atmosphere. They also inactivate mercury and other heavy metal compounds. Agar in the medium further reduces the rapid diffusion of oxygen but may lead to slight turbidity in larger volumes (filled bottles). Resazurin indicates the reduction potential of the medium. An increased concentration of oxygen is indicated by a color change to pink.

Application

Fluid Thioglycolate Medium is suitable for the isolation and cultivation of fastidious anaerobic as well as for aerobic microorganisms. It is used for sterility control of pharmaceutical products.

Features and Benefits

Our ready to use media provide the highest level of quality and testing confidence. They have been formulated and tested to meet the pharmacopoeia requirements. Sterility testing media and rinse solutions are manufactured in an ISO 9001, environmentally controlled production center. Each lot undergoes a stringent quality control (QC) procedure, including pH, sterility and growth promotion tests. Our manufacturing approach ensures the highest level of clarity for our media and rinsing fluids, therefore improving accuracy and significantly reducing the risk of incorrect interpretation and false results.
