Casein enzymic hydrolysate and yeast e x tract serve as source of essential nutrients to the contaminants, if present. De x trose serves as the energy source. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic equilibrium of the medium whereas L-cystine, an amino acid, also serves as source of essential growth factors. Sodium thioglycollate and L-cystine lower the o x idation-reduction potential of the medium by removing o x ygen to maintain a low Eh. Sodium thioglycollate also helps to neutralize the to x ic effects of mercurial preservatives (2, 3).
Storage and Shelf-life:
Store below 30°C in tightly closed container and the prepared medium at 2 - 8°C. Use before e x piry date on the label.
