FAQs
What is the difference between bacteriological peptone and other peptones?
Bacteriological peptone undergoes additional purification steps to remove inhibitors and ensure consistent performance in microbial growth. It’s specifically formulated to support a wide range of bacteria commonly used in laboratory settings.
Can I use this peptone for fungal culture media?
While primarily designed for bacterial cultures, this peptone can support some fungal growth. However, for optimal fungal cultivation, we recommend specialized fungal peptones available in our catalog.
How should I prepare media using this peptone?
Typically, you would dissolve 5-10g of peptone per liter of distilled water, then autoclave at 121°C for 15 minutes. Always follow your specific protocol’s recommendations for best results.
What’s the shelf life of this bacteriological peptone?
When stored properly in its original packaging, this peptone maintains its quality for 24 months from the date of manufacture. Check the label for specific expiration information.
Do you offer smaller quantities for occasional users?
Currently, we provide this bacteriological peptone in convenient 1kg packs. For smaller research needs, consider dividing the contents into airtight containers to maintain freshness.
