MAST Ceftazidime 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Ceftazidime 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to ceftazidime using the standard agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 10 micrograms of ceftazidime, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic belonging to the beta-lactam group. Ceftazidime inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis and has activity against susceptible Gram-negative bacteria, including certain Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these antibiotic susceptibility discs provide standardised antibiotic concentrations and support consistent inhibition zone measurements during routine antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing 250 discs for use in hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres, microbiology laboratories and research institutions.
