General description
M-Gredient® Meat Extract, Granulated, Prime, for Biotechnology and Microbiology is prepared from bovine and porcine animal tissue. Thanks to its high nutrient value it can be used for microbiological culture media preparation as well as industrial fermentation. Our special granulation of the meat extract ensures rapid and uniform dissolution in water, as well as convenient and safe handling, as it prevents clumping and inhalation of the airborne powder.
Application
Meat Extract is used as a nutritive substrate in microbial culture media. It is particularly suitable for cultivating lactic acid bacteria.
Features and Benefits
Our Granulated media are:
- Safer - Significant reduction of inhalation of toxic and allergenic substances resulting in fewer allergic responses. Less contamination of working tools and environment.
- Accurate - No separation of components and no clumping, even under humid or warm conditions, ensure a uniform product with higher performance accuracy.
- Fast - Rapid and uniform dissolution in water.
- Easier - Easier handling and weighing due to the better flow properties. Media do not stick to the flask or container.
- Reliable - Homogenous distribution of ingredients guarantees high reproducibility even if only small amounts of media are used.
