Thermo Scientific™ Cooked Meat Medium (Dehydrated)

Description

• Grow and maintain aerobic and anaerobic organisms with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Cooked Meat Medium (Dehydrated)
• The medium contains heart tissue, beef extracts, peptone and glucose for the cultivation of anaerobic and aerobic organisms
• It has the ability to initiate bacterial growth from very small inocula and to maintain the viability of cultures over long periods of time 1
• Mixed cultures of bacteria survive in Cooked Meat Medium without displacing the slower growing organisms
• Cooked Meat Medium is recommended for the cultivation and storage of aerobic, anaerobic microorganisms, especially Clostridium species
• Suitable for primary growth and maintenance of aerobic and anaerobic organisms
• Preserves the viability of organisms over a long period of time and is useful in maintaining anaerobic stock organisms
• The addition of glucose to the formulation allows rapid, heavy growth of anaerobic bacteria in a short time and leads to a more rapid identification of important anaerobes
• The improved growth also enhances the GLC identification of anaerobic bacteria
• The improved clarity of the supernatant broth permits earlier detection of growth, especially when combined with the increased growth of most organisms
• Slower growing isolates will yield detectable growth within 45 hours of incubation
• Not all products are available for sale in all territories
