NUTRIENT BROTH

Nutrient Broth is a popular general-purpose medium in microbiology due to its versatility and wide range of applications. Formulated to facilitate the growth of non-fastidious organisms, it allows for the growth and maintenance of bacteria in the laboratory for routine use. Further, Due to its versatile and nutritious formulation it is routinely used in other routine microbiological procedures like preparation of cultures, purity check and microbial counts.
Peptones and Yeast Extract provide nitrogenous substances, vitamins, carbon sources and other trace nutrients for the cultivation of a wide variety of organisms. For the regular growth of most bacterial cells, sodium chloride is required to keep the osmotic equilibrium. Nutrient Broth is suitable for the growth of a wide range of organisms, and is used as a base with additional enrichment such as blood, serum or other biological supplements that can be added for growing fastidious organisms. Because of its flexibility and reliability of results, this method is usually considered a reference method and is the staple of the food, dairy, water, environmental and research laboratories for routine work and quality control during microbiological cultivation.
