Principle And Interpretation

Antibiotic HiVeg Assay Medium No. 32 is prepared by incorporating vegetable peptones in place of animal peptones, making the medium BSE-TSE risks free. This can be used for the same purpose of Antibiotic Assay Medium No. 32 that is formulated in accordance to FDA (1) and is a modification of Antibiotic assay Medium No.1. This medium is used to develop inoculum of Bacillus subtilis for antibiotic assay.

Essential nutrients, vitamins, mineral, trace elements and growth factors are supplied by HiVeg Peptone, HiVeg hydrolysate, yeast extract and HiVeg extract. Dextrose in the medium serves as the carbon source for stimulating the growth of the test microorganism. Manganese sulphate in this medium facilitates the sporulation and growth of Bacillus subtilis (2,3,4), which is generally used as test organisms for plate assay of Dihydrostreptomycin and Vancomycin.
