PEPTONIZED MILK

Peptonized Milk combines the nutritional benefits of milk-derived proteins with the enhanced availability of peptides and amino acids obtained through controlled protein digestion. This results in a rich and nutritionally valuable substrate that can be used to grow a wide variety of microorganisms. Due to its balanced composition it can be considered as a standard solution in microbiological media when a predictable cultivation performance is desired.
The ingredient is employed in the production of culture medium for routine and specialized microbiological uses. It contains nitrogenous substances, peptides, amino acids and growth factors that can support a wide variety of organisms with varying nutritional requirements. Peptonized Milk is especially adapted for the preparation of media for the growth of fastidious organisms such as Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Pneumococcus, Haemophilus, and Neisseria species. It is used for bacterial culture and also for bacterial toxin production and in synthetic media used for microbial acclimatization and bioreactor studies.
Its good solubility allows an even distribution of the nutrients in the medium and promotes good reproducibility of the result. Due to its versatility and nutritional richness, Peptonized Milk is widely used in the formulation of media for research, diagnostic, fermentation and industrial microbiology.
