ABSTRACT

Culture media, designed to grow as many different genera of microorganisms as possible, appear to require a nutrient base composed of polypeptides, oligopeptides and amino acids. Most modern culture media are composed by a mixture of different protein hydrolysates obtained from different proteins and enzymes in order to provide the widest spread of peptides. It seems that large peptides have a role in recovering (or resuscitating) of nutritionally fastidious organisms. The aim of this work was to develop a mixed nutrient base with local raw materials and technology. It was made physical, chemical and microbiological characterisation of three mixtures of the protein hydrolysates and it was selected the best one to promote the growth of a wide range of the microorganisms in different culture media.
