Frequent Uses

Microbiological Culture Media

Widely used in the preparation of culture media for the cultivation of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. It provides the necessary nutrients for microbial growth in both solid and liquid media, such as nutrient agar, broth, and other specialised growth media used in laboratories.

Bacteriological Research

In research laboratories, it is used to support the growth of a wide range of bacterial species for studies in microbiology, genetics, and biochemistry. It is essential in experiments requiring the cultivation of microorganisms under controlled conditions.

Cell Culture Media

Sometimes used in cell culture media for the growth of animal or plant cells in vitro. It provides a rich source of nutrients and growth factors required for the propagation of cells in culture systems used in research and pharmaceutical production.

Production of Enzymes and Other Bioproducts

Used in the production of enzymes, including proteases and amylases, which are important in industrial processes. By providing an optimal nutrient environment, it promotes the growth of microorganisms that produce these valuable enzymes for use in industries such as food, detergent, and textile manufacturing.
