Casein peptone

A classic peptone used in the production of dehydrated culture media of NZ origin. Tryptone is probably the most widespread peptone used in culture media manufacturing, and used in various media references  references in industrial microbiology (lactic acid bacteria, probiotics, etc.) and in agro-food diagnostics (Listeria, Salmonella, Staphylococci…) as well as pharmaceutical fermentation (toxin production, biomass, etc.)
