CULTURE MEDIA - SOYA PEPTONE
It is manufactured by enzymatic hydrolysis of soya four. It is recommended in media that are required to support a shorter lag phase and smaller generation time to allow rapid luxuriant growth. Because of the stimulatory properties associated with soya peptone, it is ideally recommended as a growth stimulant for the cultivation of the difficult and fadtidious microorganisms. It is suitable for cultivation of fungi & moulds including fermentations of various protein enzymes and antibiotics.
