Cefotaxime 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Disc

The Cefotaxime 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Disc is a laboratory diagnostic disc used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) by the agar diffusion method, including the Kirby-Bauer technique. Each paper disc is impregnated with a standardized 30 microgram dose of cefotaxime, allowing microbiology laboratories to assess whether a bacterial isolate is susceptible, intermediate, or resistant to cefotaxime. The disc is typically applied to inoculated Mueller-Hinton agar, after which the inhibition zone is measured and interpreted according to the applicable laboratory standard. It is intended for in-vitro diagnostic and professional laboratory use in hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, microbiology laboratories, research facilities, and antimicrobial resistance testing programs.
