MAST Clarithromycin 15 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Clarithromycin 15 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are high-quality diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to clarithromycin using the agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 15 micrograms of clarithromycin, a macrolide 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 support consistent and reproducible antimicrobial susceptibility testing when used with validated laboratory procedures. When placed on an appropriately inoculated agar medium, clarithromycin diffuses into the surrounding medium, producing a measurable zone of bacterial growth inhibition. The inhibition zone can be interpreted using established organism-specific susceptibility criteria. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing a total of 250 discs for hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres, clinical microbiology laboratories and research institutions., Key Features - 15 µg Clarithromycin Concentration: Each disc contains 15 micrograms of clarithromycin. - Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing: Designed for assessing bacterial susceptibility through agar disc diffusion. - Macrolide Antibiotic Testing: Suitable for testing relevant bacterial isolates against clarithromycin. - Consistent Disc Potency: Manufactured to support reliable and reproducible inhibition zone measurements. - 250 Discs Per Pack: Supplied in five cartridges containing 50 discs each. - Convenient Cartridge Packaging: Supports efficient dispensing and laboratory handling. - Dispenser Compatibility: Suitable for compatible MAST antibiotic disc dispensers. - Professional Laboratory Use: Ideal for hospital laboratories, clinical microbiology laboratories and diagnostic centres.
