MAST Ceftolozane-Tazobactam 30-10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Ceftolozane/Tazobactam 30/10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are high-quality diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to the combination of ceftolozane and tazobactam using the agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 30 micrograms of ceftolozane and 10 micrograms of tazobactam. Ceftolozane is a cephalosporin antibiotic with activity against susceptible Gram-negative bacteria, including certain Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, while tazobactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects ceftolozane against degradation by certain bacterial enzymes. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these discs support antimicrobial susceptibility testing of clinically relevant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens, including selected multidrug-resistant organisms. The discs are designed to provide consistent antibiotic potency and reproducible inhibition zone measurements when used with validated laboratory procedures. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing a total of 250 discs for hospital microbiology laboratories, diagnostic centres, infectious disease laboratories and research institutions.
