Principle and Interpretation

Dextrose HiVeg Peptone Broth is prepared by completely replacing animal based peptones with vegetable peptones which is free from BSE/TSE risks. Dextrose HiVeg Peptone Broth is the modification of Dextrose Peptone Broth formulated as per suggestion by Williams (1) for the cultivation of microorganisms, which are fastidious, or present in small numbers, and also for the enumeration of the thermophilic bacteria responsible for flat sour spoilage of canned food. The conventional medium is also recommended by AOAC for the routine cultivation purpose (2).

HiVeg peptone supplies amino acids, peptides etc. for the growth of the organisms. Dextrose is the readily available energy source for the most of the organisms. Dextrose HiVeg Peptone Broth can also be used for routine sterility testing.
