Tryptic Soy Broth with Neutralizers

Tryptic Soy Broth with LT is used for the isolation and cultivation of fastidious aerobic bacteria, yeasts and molds in the presence of disinfectant residues. The medium designed for the testing of sterile and non-sterile substances, preparations, and products.

Our ready to use media provide the highest level of quality and testing confidence. They have been formulated and tested to meet the pharmacopoeia requirements. Sterility testing media and rinse solutions are manufactured in an ISO 9001, environmentally controlled production center. Each lot undergoes a stringent quality control (QC) procedure, including pH, sterility and growth promotion tests. Our manufacturing approach ensures the highest level of clarity for our media and rinsing fluids, therefore improving accuracy and significantly reducing the risk of incorrect interpretation and false results.

Tryptic Soy Broth with neutralizers is a universal complex and highly nutritious medium and supports the growth of a wide variety of aerobic and facultative anaerobic microorganisms, including fungi. The neutralizing additives Polysorbate (Tween^®) 80 and lecithin reverse the growth inhibitory effect of most disinfectants and antiseptics. Lecithin along with Polysorbate 80 is effective against quaternary ammonium compounds, amphoteric surfactants, benzamidines, chlorhexidines, and dequadin. Polysorbate 80 inactivates benzyl alcohol, carbanilides, dichlorbenzyl alcohols, benzoic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid and its esters, phenols, phenylethyl alcohols, and Solbrols (PHB esters).
