Overview

Cultivate fastidious organisms present in small numbers from clinical specimens with InMicro® Prepared: Fastidious Broth.

In 1994 Cartwright et al. first described the use of Fastidious Broth to enrich specimens that may contain small numbers of fastidious organisms, prior to culture on plated media. Fastidious Broth supports the growth of a variety of bacteria e.g., Corynebacterium jeikeiumHaemophilus influenzaeNeisseria gonorrhoea and Streptococcus pneumoniae. For many organisms, this broth reduces the time of incubation and the volume of inoculum required for growth to be detectable.

Fastidious Broth is a liquid medium recommended for the cultivation of fastidious organisms. Fastidious Broth contains casein and meat peptones that supply amino acids, peptides, and nitrogenous substances essential for growth. Yeast extract supplies essential B-complex vitamins that stimulatethe growth of organisms. Sodium chloride provides essential electrolytes that maintain osmotic equilibrium.

  • Ready-to-use: Convenience of prepared media.
  • Easy-to-use: Inoculate the broth directly with the specimen immediately once it is received in the laboratory and incubate at 35-37º C for up to 7 days.

Dextrose is a carbohydrate source that provides energy. L-cysteine improves the recovery of aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms from blood. Tris is a buffer. Magnesium and iron salts improve the growth of aerobes and anaerobes. NAD and hemin help in growth of certain fastidious organism that include H. influenzae. Polysorbate 80 is the nutritional source of essential fatty acids. Agarose is added to hinder the diffusion of oxygen. Pyridoxal is essential for the growth of many fastidious organisms.
