Description

Quantity: 100 x 9 mL
Unit Size: Each
Transport clinical swab specimens to the laboratory using Amies Transport Medium with charcoal. Gonococci survive well in Amies Transport Medium w/ Charcoal for at least 6 to 12 hours provided they are not exposed to temperature extremes^5.
• Ready to use– Convenience of prepared media.
• Convenient– Easy transportation and storage at room temperatureThis medium contains 0.3% sodium chloride for optimal preservation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts control the permeability of bacterial cells and maintain osmotic equilibrium. Phosphate buffer maintains the pH of the medium at 7.3 ± 0.2 (@25° C). Sodium thioglycolate and Agar provide a reduced environment favourable to a variety of bacteria^6. Charcoal neutralizes metabolic products toxic to gonococci and removes the need for using charcoal-impregnated swabs.Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
