Directions

Sterile powder can be used directly for the evaluation of sterility in manufacturing process. For sterile liquid medium aseptically add 29.0 grams in 1000 ml sterile distilled / purified water. Heat if necessary to dissolve the medium completely.Dispense aseptically in sterile tubes or flasks as desired. DO NOT AUTOCLAVE OR OVERHEAT. Excessive heating is detrimental. (Sterilised by gamma irradiation)

Note:

It is preferable to use freshly prepared medium, alternatively it should be boiled and cooled just once prior to use or with reheating, toxic oxygen radicles are formed.

Principle And Interpretation

Alternative Thioglycollate HiVeg® Medium, sterile powder is prepared by replacing animal based Pancreatic digest of casein of Alternative Thioglycollate Medium, sterile powder with plant based HiVeg® Hydrolysate. This makes the medium free of BSE-TSE associated risks. The formula is based on N.I.H. Memorandum (1), U.S. Pharmacopoeia (2) and Indian Pharmacopoeia (3). Alternative Thioglycollate HiVeg® Medium contains sodium thioglycollate that can neutralize the bacteriostatic effect of mercurial preservatives. Absence of agar makes it suitable for testing viscous materials and devices having tubes with small lumina. HiVeg® hydrolysate, yeast extract, dextrose, L-Cystine provides nitrogenous and carbonaceous compounds, vitamin B complex, trace elements and other essential growth nutrients.
