A Review: Formulation of Alternative Culture Media
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science and Agriculture Research - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Culture media is the inevitable part of study of microorganisms and plays a significant role for flourishing microbial growth and metabolism. It consists of variety of macro as well as microelements. It can be raw materials or the synthetic media. However, traditional culture media components, especially synthetic media components are costly. As a result, numerous researches have been attempted to create and assess the effectiveness of alternative, affordable culture media, often employing basic materials that are natural and easily accessible. The current study reviews at several plant-based culture media formulations for microorganism growth and the generation of industrially relevant microbial chemicals. Most formulations which have been studied includes horticulture ingredients, vegetable substrates including soy, certain beans, maize and rice. In terms of microbial growth efficiency and manufacturing cost, alternative culture media frequently produce results that are satisfactory compared to standard media.
