Description
Unit Size: Each
Produce more screening details of pathogenic organisms while reducing storage capacity issues in the incubator with a bi-plate that includes widely used microbiological medium for the detection of Mycobacterium species.
• Readyto use:Convenience of prepared media.
• Selective: Polymyxin B, carbenicillin, amphotericin B and trimethoprim inhibit growth of contaminatingEnterobacteriaceae,yeast andProteus.Malachite-green dye partially inhibits bacteria other than mycobacteria.
• Space-saving:Biplate formatMiddlebrook 7H11 Agar/Mitchison 7H11 Selective Biplates contain inorganic salts essential for growth of mycobacteria. Casein hydrolysate stimulates growth of drug resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis^4. Glycerol is the source of carbon and energy. Sodium citrate is converted to citric acid which holds inorganic cations in solution.OADC Enrichment is a supplement which contains following additives: sodium chloride to maintain osmotic equilibrium, dextrose that serves as an energy source, catalase to destroy toxic peroxides that may be present in the medium; oleic acid which is required in the metabolism of mycobacteria; and albumin to protect tubercle bacilli against toxic agents. It also contains selective agents malachite-green dye, polymyxin B, carbenicillin, amphotericin B and trimethoprim. Polymyxin B and carbenicillin are selective agents active against most Enterobacteriaceae. Amphotericin B and trimethoprim are active against yeast and Proteus spp., respectively.Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
