Description

General description

FluidThioglycollate Medium also known as FTM is a nutrient rich complex mediumdesigned to serve as a sterility control for pharmaceutical products.
The presenceof Thioglycollate and L-Cystine in the medium reduces the redox potential ofthe medium to create an anaerobic atmosphere. Additionally, it deactivates thepresence of mercury and other heavy metals.
The presence of agarfurther reduces oxygen diffusion and resazurin indicates the reduced oxygenpotential in the medium. An increased oxygen concentration will render a colorchange from yellow to pink in the medium.

Application

FluidThioglycollate Medium is used to isolate and cultivate fastidious anaerobic andaerobic microbes in test samples. FTM is suitable as a sterility control ofpharmaceutical products.
Fluid ThioglycollateMedium is recommended for sterility testing of samples according to EU and USpharmacopeia.

Features and Benefits

• Our ready-to-use media provide the highestlevel of quality and testing confidence. They are formulated and tested to meetthe pharmacopeia requirements.
• Sterility testing media and rinse solutions aremanufactured in an ISO 9001, environmentally controlled production center. Eachlot undergoes a stringent quality control (QC) procedure, including pH,sterility, and growth promotion tests.
• Our manufacturing approach ensures the highest level of clarity forour media and rinsing fluids, thus improving accuracy, and reducing the risk ofincorrect interpretation and false results.
