General description

EcoCult^® Buffered Peptone Water is rich in nutrients and produces high resuscitation rates for sub-lethally injured bacteria and intense growth. The phosphate buffer system prevents bacterial damage caused by changes in the pH of the medium. Peptone, including an enzymatic digest of casein, acts as a source of carbon, nitrogen, vitamins, and minerals. Sodium chloride helps to maintain the osmotic balance.
