Intended Use

T.A.T. (Tryptone Azolectin Tween) HiVeg Broth Base with addition of Polysorbate 20 is recommended for sterility testing of highly viscous or gelatinous substances such as salves, ointments.

Composition

Ingredients Grams/Litre
HiVeg hydrolysate 20.0
Azolectin 5.0

Final pH (at 25°C) 7.2 ± 0.2

Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters.

Directions

Suspend 25 grams in 960 ml distilled water and add 40 ml of Polysorbate 20. Heat if necessary to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15 lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes.

Principle and Interpretation

T.A.T. HiVeg Broth Base is prepared by using HiVeg hydrolysate in place of Casein enzymic hydrolysate which makes the medium free of BSE/TSE risks. This medium is the modification of T.A.T. Broth Base originally prepared according to the formula recommended by United States Food and Drug Administration (1) for enrichment and further isolation and cultivation of gram-negative bacteria in cosmetics, tropical drugs and sterility testing of viscous or gelatinous substances. T.A.T HiVeg Broth Base is used for the same purpose. HiVeg hydrolysate provides the necessary nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids and carbon sources in the medium. Azolectin and polysorbae 20 neutralize the preservatives in the cosmetic or pharmaceutical products, allowing bacteria to grow. Samples to be tested are serially diluted using 1 gram of sample for the master dilution tube. Further, one ml of each dilution is inoculated in 40 ml of T.A.T HiVeg Broth Base (2). After incubation it is subcultured on MacConkey HiVeg Agar, (MV081) and TSI HiVeg Agar, (MV021).
