Nutrient Gelatin
Nutrient Gelatin is used to provide nutrients and detect gelatin liquefaction by proteolytic microorganisms.
In addition to Gelatin, used to detect gelatinase (enzyme liquefying this protein) activity, Nutrient Gelatin contains Peptic Digest of Animal Tissue and Beef Extract as nutrient sources.
In compliance with regulatory requirements, a USDA permit (VS 16-3) is mandatory for shipments from Canada to the USA due to the inclusion of peptone, an animal byproduct.
Nutrient Gelatin is used to determine gelatin liquefaction by proteolytic microorganisms.
Nutrient Gelatin is recommended for the taxonomic differentiation of the Enterobacteriaceae and nonfermenting gram-negative bacteria. The rate of liquefaction is used as a differential characteristic. This medium is primarily useful when investigating the liquefaction characteristics of pure cultures of organisms having minimal to no fastidious nutritional needs.
