MAST Doripenem 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Doripenem 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are laboratory diagnostic discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to doripenem using the agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 10 micrograms of doripenem, a broad-spectrum carbapenem antibiotic belonging to the beta-lactam group. Doripenem acts by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis and demonstrates activity against various susceptible Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these antibiotic-impregnated discs support reliable and reproducible antimicrobial susceptibility testing when used under validated laboratory conditions. The discs are particularly useful in clinical microbiology laboratories investigating antibiotic susceptibility among relevant Gram-negative bacterial isolates, including certain Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing a total of 250 discs for hospital laboratories, diagnostic centres, microbiology laboratories and research institutions.
