MAST Cefpodoxime 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Cefpodoxime 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are high-quality laboratory diagnostic discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to cefpodoxime using the standard agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 10 micrograms of cefpodoxime, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic belonging to the beta-lactam group. Cefpodoxime inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis, and these antibiotic-impregnated discs enable microbiology laboratories to evaluate bacterial susceptibility by measuring zones of growth inhibition. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these discs are designed to provide consistent antibiotic concentrations and reproducible results during antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing a total of 250 discs for use in hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres, clinical microbiology laboratories and research institutions.
