Quality Control

Our Tryptose is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance. Each lot is tested against rigorous specifications for microbiological purity, chemical composition, and growth-promoting properties. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications for total nitrogen, amino nitrogen, clarity, pH, and bioburden are available upon request to support your quality and regulatory documentation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect performance and stability.
