General description

ReadyTube® is ready to use media to provide the highest level of quality and testing confidence for improving accuracy and significantly reducing the risk of false results. ReadyTube® buffered peptone water is a pre-enrichment medium designed to help the recovery of sub-lethally damaged Salmonellae before transfer to a selective medium. This pre-enrichment medium is free from inhibitors and is well buffered. It provides conditions for resuscitation of the cells that have been injured by processes of food preservation. The media contains Peptone, including an enzymatic digest of casein, as a source of carbon, nitrogen, vitamins, and minerals. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance, and phosphates buffer the medium. The broth is rich in nutrients enabling it to produce high resuscitation rates for sub-lethally injured bacteria and support intense growth.

Application

ReadyTube® buffered peptone water is used in preliminary non-selective enrichment of bacteria, particularly pathogenic Enterobacteriaceae such as Salmonella and Cronobacter from food, water, and animal feed.
