Alternate Thioglycolate medium

Principle Thioglycollate broth, the alternative is formulated as described in the N.I.H. memorandum (1955). Fluid Thioglycollate Medium is composed of tryptone, yeast extract, dextrose, sodium chloride, L-cystine, and sodium thioglycollate. Tryptone serves as a source of nitrogen, amino acids, and other essential nutrients. Yeast extract provides essential nutrients to the contaminants, if present. Dextrose serves as the energy source. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance of the medium. L-cystine and sodium thioglycollate lower the oxidation-reduction potential of the medium by removing oxygen to maintain a low Eh. Use: Recommended for sterility testing of biological and pharmaceutical products. PARAMETERS STANDARD VALUES PHYSICAL PARAMETERS: Dehydrated Powder A fine, free flowing, hygroscopic powder.
