Peptone from meat and soybean meal

Peptone from meat and soybean meal is widely used in industrial microbiology as a nutrient source for the growth of microorganisms in large-scale fermentation processes. Peptone from meat and soybean meal, also known as tryptone or peptic soybean peptone, is a water-soluble protein hydrolysate obtained from the digestion of porcine pancreas, bovine skeletal muscle, and soybean is used as a nutrient source in microbial culture media. It provides a wide range of nutrients, including amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and peptides, which support the growth of diverse microorganisms. It is particularly useful for the cultivation of fastidious and heterotrophic microbes that require complex nutrient sources.

Peptone from meat and soybean meal is commonly used as an ingredient in many microbial culture media for the growth and identification of bacteria, yeasts and molds from various pharmaceutical, environmental, food and beverage samples.
