Description
Soya Peptone is an enzymatic digest of soya flour and serves as an excellent source of nutrition for a wide variety of microorganisms. It contains readily available nitrogenous compounds, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals which favor the growth and metabolism of the microorganisms. Being a plant based peptone and free from animal origin, it is appropriate for use in applications where animal origin ingredients need to be avoided. Soya Peptone is also used as a growth promoter in microbiological culture to cultivate bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms due to its rich nutrients.
Soya peptone is also a good source of nutrients of the B-complex vitamins and contains carbohydrates which make it suitable for growth of a number of fastidious organisms. It is generally added to the culture media used for research, quality control, fermentation and production of the microbes. The product is an off-white to yellowish free-flowing powder with characteristic soya odour and it forms a clear solution when dissolved in distilled water. The nutrient content is balanced to allow for a fast and consistent growth of cultures, so Soya Peptone is an essential component in many microbiological formulations.
