MAST Chloramphenicol 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Chloramphenicol 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are professional diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to chloramphenicol using the standard agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 30 micrograms of chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum amphenicol antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these antibiotic-impregnated paper discs are designed to support consistent and reproducible antimicrobial susceptibility testing in clinical microbiology laboratories. When placed on an appropriately inoculated agar medium, chloramphenicol diffuses into the surrounding medium, producing a measurable zone of bacterial growth inhibition when the organism is susceptible. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing a total of 250 discs for routine microbiology testing in hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres and research institutions.
