Description

Cultivate anaerobic bacteria using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ PRAS Cooked Meat Glucose. This medium is an enrichment broth that is recommended by Virginia Polytechnique Institute (VPI) Anaerobe Labortory Manual¹. It supports the growth of spore-forming and non-spore-forming obligate anaerobes and has the capacity to initiate growth of bacteria from minute inocula². Claros et al. found cooked meat medium superior to thioglycollate broth for stock cultures because it maintains the viability of anaerobic bacteria over extended periods of time³. This medium is also referred to as chopped meat medium.

Cultivate anaerobic bacteria using PRAS Cooked Meat Glucose. R.E. Hungate pioneered the development of Pre-reduced Anaerobically Sterilized (PRAS) media, which are processed in a reduced condition and remain reduced up to and after inoculation⁴
