:D

I was wondering if this extremely usefull peptone synthesis could be added to the SM library...


Protocol for peptone synthesis:

- Take all spoiled left-overs from your fridge and add them to a blender (preferably meat or dairy products)

- Put your finger in your throat and vomit several times to produce sufficient amounts of pepsin

- Blend the suspension until it has become a smooth paste and adjust the pH to 2

- Incubate for several days at 37 deg. C. and stirr ocasionally

- Add the entire solution to a filter paper to remove any impurities and dry the filtrate under reduced pressure to yield dry peptone

Note: Preparation time can be reduced by eating the spoiled food first, ommiting the blending and incubation step, after which vomiting is induced rapidly


Danger! Vomit is extremely corrosive. Sensitizer. Causes eye and skin burns. May cause severe respiratory and digestive tract irritation with possible burns.
