Bacto Casitone is an animal origin (AO) pancreatic enzymatic digest of casein similar to Difco Casein Digest. While this supplement provides a nutritional profile based on casein, the specific enzymatic digest performed for this product results in a particularly high content of amino acids and peptides of varying sizes, making it a more nutritious hydrolysate. Customers have successfully used this supplement for the production of Escherichia coli-based recombinant proteins.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

What alternative product do you recommend for Bacto Tryptone (Cat. No. 211699, 211701, 211705)?

We have several casein digests that could serve as alternatives to Bactone Tryptone (Cat. No. 211699, 211791, 211705), including Bacto Casitone (Cat. No. 225930, 225910), Difco Tryptone Peptone (Cat. No. 21921, 211922, 211923), BiTek Tryptone (Cat. No. 251420). However, the digestion and nutritive profile of each peptone are different, therefore there may be differences in bacterial growth or supplementation ability. We recommend empirically determining the performance of alternative casein digestion in your application.
