What is Peptone?
Peptone is an organic compound, characterized as a pale yellow powder obtained by hydrolyzing meat, casein, or gelatin with an acid or a protease. This powder has a distinct meat flavor. Proteins can also convert into peptone after being decomposed by acids, bases, or proteases. Notably, peptone is one of the preliminary digestion products of proteins in the stomach and is rich in organic nitrogen compounds, vitamins, and sugars.
Uses of Peptone
Peptone serves as the main raw material in microbial culture media. It finds applications in various fields, including antibiotics, pharmaceuticals, fermentation industries, biochemical products, and microbiological research. Additionally, peptone can assist in treating digestive diseases.
Moreover, different organisms require specific amino acids and peptides, leading to the existence of various types of peptones. Typically, proteins used for peptone production include animal proteins (like casein and meat), plant proteins (such as beans), and microbial proteins (like yeast). These proteins provide essential nutrients, such as carbon sources, nitrogen sources, and growth factors for microorganisms.
Peptone Powder Usage
This product consists of a mixture of peptone and amino acids, obtained by hydrolyzing protein sources like blood fiber using pepsin or other enzymes. It appears as a light yellow to brown powder or granule with a meaty taste and no foul odor. Peptone is soluble in water but insoluble in ethanol, chloroform, and ether.
Furthermore, it serves as an ingredient in microorganism and animal cell culture media, special functional foods, cosmetics, and stabilizers for products like beer.
