    NUTRIENT BROTH


    INTENDED USE

    Nutrient Broth is a general usage medium for a large variety of microorganisms without particular
    nutritional requirements. Its formula complies with the directives of the French J .O. of August 8, 1972
    for the detection of the intrinsic inhibitory capacity of cosmetic products.


    PRINCIPLES

    - Nutrient Broth is composed of a mixture of Tryptone and meat extract, which aids microbial growth.
    - Sodium chloride is included to maintain osmotic equilibrium.


    PREPARATION

    - Dissolve 20.0 g of dehydrated medium (BK003) in 1 liter of distilled or deionized water.
    - Stir slowly until complete dissolution.
    - Dispense in tubes or flasks.
    - Sterilize in an autoclave at 121C for 15 minutes.


    INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

    - Inoculate the medium with purified cultures or with other type of mixed microflora inocula.
    - Incubate at the required optimal temperature, aerobically or in a CO
    2
    -enriched atmosphere,
    depending on the nature of the bacteria to be cultured.


    RESULTS

    Growth is shown by turbidity resulting from microbial multiplication.


    TYPICAL COMPOSITION
    (can be adjusted to obtain optimal performance)

    For 1 liter of medium :
    Tryptone...........................................................................................10.0 g
    Meat extract........................................................................................5.0 g
    Sodium chloride .................................................................................5.0 g
