MAST Ceftaroline 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Ceftaroline 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are high-quality diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to ceftaroline using the standard agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 30 micrograms of ceftaroline, an advanced cephalosporin antibiotic belonging to the beta-lactam group. Ceftaroline inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins and demonstrates activity against selected Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including susceptible methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these antibiotic susceptibility discs are designed to provide consistent antibiotic concentrations and reproducible inhibition zone measurements during antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The product is supplied in five cartridges containing 50 discs each, providing a total of 250 discs for routine clinical microbiology testing in hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres and research institutions.
