Vaccine Veg Medium (Thioglycollate Broth w/Veg Extract No.2) is modification of original Thioglycollate medium recommended for the cultivation of anaerobic organisms on large scale. Anaerobic microorganisms have long been known as constituents of the normal bacterial flora of human and animal organisms. Both their pathogenic significance in medicine and their important role in food hygiene have, however, long been underestimated. During the past few years the importance of anaerobic microorganisms as pathogenic agents responsible for infectious diseases and the role they play in the microbial spoilage of food and water have been better appreciated. Extremely different spectra of anaerobic organisms are of importance for the examination of food and in the clinical microbiology. B.Q. Vaccine Medium (Thioglycollate Broth with Liver Extract) is modification of original Thioglycollate medium, recommended for the cultivation of anaerobic organisms on large scale. It is a nutritious medium due to the presence of peptic digest of animal tissue, liver tissues and muscle tissues.
