Peptone dextrose agar

Manufactured by Merck Group

Peptone Dextrose Agar is a general-purpose culture medium used for the cultivation of a wide range of microorganisms. It provides peptone as a source of organic nitrogen and dextrose as a carbon source. The agar component serves as a solidifying agent, allowing the medium to be used for the preparation of culture plates.

Enumeration of Microbial Populations in Fermented Lamtoro Seed

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Every 6-hour of fermentation, the inoculated lamtoro seed was sampled for lactic acid bacteria, yeast, and mold enumeration. Approximately 1 g of each sample was crushed and homogenized in 9 mL of 0.85% NaCl solution then each sample was serially diluted using sterile 0.85% NaCl solution.
For Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) enumeration, 1 mL sample was pour plating on de Man Ragosa Sharpe Agar (Merck) supplemented with 1 % CaCO 3 and 0.02 ppm sodium azide then incubated 37 o C for 48 hrs (Nudyanto dan Zubaidah, 2015) . For yeast enumeration, 0.1 mL sample was spread plating on Malt Extract Agar (Merck) supplemented with 200 ppm chloramphenicol and 0.5 % calcium propionate then incubated 28°C for 48 hrs (Ebabhi et al., 2013) . For mold enumeration, 0.1 mL sample was spread plating on Peptone Dextrose Agar (Merck) supplemented with 200 ppm chloramphenicol and 0.1% tartaric acid then incubated 30 o C for 48 hrs (Da Silva et al., 2013) . The total number of LAB, yeast and mold colonies was expressed as the number of colonies per mL (CFU/mL) sample.

Microbial Profiling of Lamtoro Tempe

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The samples were taken immediately after lamtoro seed has been inoculated with laru (0 hr) and every 12 hrs during continued fermentation begin from 42 nd hrs fermentation until 138 th hrs. Samples were collected from 3 times lamtoro tempe production. Approximately 1 g of each sample was crushed and homogenized in 9 mL of 0.85% NaCl solution then each sample was serially diluted using sterile 0.85% NaCl solution.
For lactic acid bacteria (LAB) enumeration, 1 mL of suspension from 10 -5 -10 -7 dilution was pour-plated with de Man Ragosa Sharpe Agar (Merck) supplemented with 1% CaCO 3 and 0.02 ppm sodium azide then incubated 37 o C for 48 hrs (Nudyanto dan Zubaidah, 2015) . While for yeast enumeration, 0.1 mL suspension from 10 -2 -10 -4 dilution was spread-plated on Malt Extract Agar (Merck) supplemented with 200 ppm chloramphenicol and 0.5% calcium propionate then incubated 28 o C for 48 hrs (Ebabhi et al., 2013) . Whereas mold enumeration was conducted by spread plating 0.1 mL suspension from 10 -1 -10 -3 dilution on Peptone Dextrose Agar (Merck) supplemented with 200 ppm chloramphenicol and 0.1% tartaric acid then incubated 30 o C for 48 hrs (Da Silva et al., 2013) . All plating for microbial analysis was done in two replicates and the total number of LAB, yeast and mold colonies were expressed as the number of colonies per mL (CFU/mL) sample.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
