It can be used in following media: Tryptose Media : for cultivation of fastidious microorganisms and for preparing Blood
Agars, HiVeg (MV073/MV834). HiVeg hydrolysate No. 1 aids in maintaining blood cells in excellent state, thus haemolytic
reactions can be easily demonstrated.Vaccine Preparation Media : for rapid and luxuriant growth as desired for large scale
manufacturing of vaccines and toxins..
Principle And Interpretation
HiVeg Hydrolysate No. 1 is specially prepared enzymic hydrolysate of vegetable proteins that can successfully replace Tryptose (RM030) (Milk Protein).
