1521 - TRYPTOSE (Enzymatic Hydrolysate Of Protein That Replace Meat Infusion)

PRODUCT SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION
Tryptose is very useful for cultivation of streptococci, pneumococci, meningococci and other fastidious organisms, and was found to be superior to meat infusion peptone media previously used for these organisms. It has been reported as beneficial for cell culture applications. Tryptose to be suitable for supplementing a serum-free medium to grow human diploid fibroblasts.
