T.A.T. BROTH BASE (VEG.)

T.A.T. Veg Broth Base is prepared by using Veg hydrolysate in place of Casein enzymic hydrolysate which makes the medium free of BSE/TSE risks. This medium is the modification of T.A.T. Broth Base originally prepared according to the formula recommended by United States Food and Drug Administration for enrichment and further isolation and cultivation of gram-negative bacteria in cosmetics, tropical drugs and sterility testing of viscous or gelatinous substances. T.A.T Veg Broth Base is used for the same purpose. Samples to be tested are serially diluted using 1 gram of sample for the master dilution tube. Further, one ml of each dilution is inoculated in 40 ml of T.A.T Veg Broth Base. After incubation it is subcultured on MacConkey Veg Agar, and TSI Veg Agar.

for sterility testing of highly viscous substances such as ointments, salves and other cosmetic products
