acumedia* Tryptose Broth

• Intended Use: Tryptose Broth is used for the cultivation of Brucella spp. and other fastidious microorganisms.
• Product Summary and Explanation: Tryptose Broth is prepared with Tryptose, and recommended for the cultivation and isolation

Tryptose Broth can be used a complete basal medium or supplemented with enrichment. Huddleson used a broth containing 2% Tryptose as an enrichment medium in the isolation of Brucella spp. from clinical specimens. McCullough et al. reported that addition of thiamine, dextrose, and iron salts increased growth of Brucella suis. Addition of 0.1% agar to Tryptose Broth can increase growth of aerobes and anaerobes in liquid media. Tryptose media are recommended in standard methods for food testing.
