BiTek™ Proteose Peptone

BiTek Proteose Peptone is an enzymatic digest of protein, developed as an alternative to Bacto Proteose Peptones for scale-up to production applications.

Bacto Proteose Peptones are enzymatic digests of protein. Studies of peptic digests of animal tissue prepared under varying digestion parameters demonstrated that no single peptone is the most suitable nitrogen source for every microbiological application. These findings led to the development of Bacto Proteose Peptone, Bacto Proteose Peptone No. 2, and Bacto Proteose Peptone No. 3. Bacto Proteose Peptone No. 4 is a spray-dried version of Bacto Proteose Peptone.
