Gelatin as nutrition sourc for starter cultures, vitamins and

Specially composed GELITA gelatine hydrolysates (e.g. GELITA BIOTEC®) are especially suitable as nutrient media – complex sources of nitrogen – due to their constant composition. This has been proven by numerous studies carried out in international institutes (including, among others, an article in the Journal of Biotechnology 30/93 entitled: "Use of collagen hydrolysate as a complex nitrogen source for the synthesis of penicillin by Penicillium chrysogenum"). These peptones have also been used in various industrial studies, e.g. in the manufacture of starter cultures, vitamins and antibiotics. These results have been published or presented at symposia.
