Description

General description

A specialized peptone prepared by the enzymatic digestion of selected fresh meat which can be used in media for the production of bacterial toxins from organisms such as Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Staphylococci, Clostridiae, and Salmonellae.

Application

Peptone from meat, enzymatic digest has been used:

• to culture Candida albicans
• to study its effects on canonical and non-canonical receptors of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) in human colon tissue in different ex vivo models
• as a component of the nutrient broth (NB) to study its efficacy against pathogen resistance in grapevine plants
