Peptone Salt 0.1% Solution 500g

0.1% Peptone Salt Solution is a ready-to-use isotonic diluent used for accurate sample dilution in food microbiology testing. It is widely recommended in standard and ISO methods for the examination and enumeration of microorganisms in foodstuffs.

Formulated with low-level peptone, it helps maintain microbial viability during dilution, while 0.85% sodium chloride preserves osmotic balance and cell integrity. The near-neutral pH supports optimal survival of microorganisms, making it ideal for serial dilutions and microbial counts using spread plate or pour plate techniques.

This diluent is commonly used in food safety laboratories for reliable microbial enumeration and routine microbiological analysis.
