2 The following text was taken from the above page: - ORAL TREPONEME ENRICHMENT BROTH (OTEB) - Products: AS-603 Oral Treponeme Enrichment Broth (OTEB) 10 tubes / pkg
3 Intended Use: OTEB is an enriched medium for the isolation, cultivation and maintenance of Treponemes found as part of the oral flora.
4 OTEB is a complex peptone-yeast extract medium containing volatile fatty acids and serum for a source of long chain fatty acids. Volatile fatty acids and serum are necessary nutrients for recovery of Treponemes from the oral flora. Inoculation of the medium can be done using a gassing cannula or inside an anaerobic chamber. This medium is prepared, stored and dispensed under oxygen-free conditions to prevent the formation of oxidized products prior to use.
