Product Description
Carry out microbial limit testing by harmonized methodology of pharmaceutical products in accordance with USP/EP/BP/JP1,2,3 with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Buffered Sodium Chloride Peptone Solution (Dehydrated). The combination of phosphate buffer, sodium chloride and peptone increases the viability of sensitive microorganisms by providing an isotonic environment. This is of particular importance when trying to recover cells that may be stressed or sensitive to osmotic pressure.
Use Buffered Sodium Chloride Peptone Broth for the dilution of samples in the analysis of non-sterile products for microbial contaminants.
- Conforms to the harmonized Microbial Limit Testing chapters from the EP/USP/BP/JP1,2,3
- Maintains cell viability during the dilution process.
