When performing media fill trials, you shouldn’t have to worry about culture media compromising your validated process. Have peace of mind with our ready-to-use liquid culture media. Every batch is carefully tested for sterility and growth performance. All our culture media are supplied for the ultimate security of your aseptic process.

Our ready-to-use culture media for media fill testing include Vegetable Peptone Broth (VPB) and Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) prepared according to European and US pharmacopeias. These liquid broths are first sterilized by autoclave and then undergo a two-step pre-filtration process consisting of a particulate filter to avoid clogging and a 0.2 μM filter for sterilization. The media is supplied in 10-liter bags that are triple-layered and gamma-irradiated at 9–20 kGy for enhanced safety.

The self-collapsing, gas-impermeable bags can include an 80 cm long tube with an MPC connector (male insert 3/8”) or a sterile Lynx® connector (for vegetable peptone broth only), which enables direct connection to the filling line. An injection port with a septum allows the supplementation of the broth medium, for example, with neutralizers, antibiotic inactivators, or growth supplements.

Benefits of ready-to-use liquid broth:

  • Sterile connection to aseptic production lines with Lynx® connector
  • High-quality product: stringent sterilization and irradiation processes ensure removal of yeast, mold, spores, and mycoplasma
  • Comprehensive documentation: COA and BSE/TSE certificates available
  • Injection port with a septum allows the supplementation of the broth medium, for example, with neutralizers, antibiotics inactivators, or growth supplements
  • Long shelf life of media
