MAST Gentamicin 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Gentamicin 30 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are high-quality diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to gentamicin using the agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 30 micrograms of gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, disrupting bacterial protein production. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these antibiotic-impregnated discs provide consistent antibiotic concentrations and support reproducible inhibition zone measurements during antimicrobial susceptibility testing. When placed on an appropriately inoculated agar medium, gentamicin diffuses into the surrounding medium and may produce a measurable zone of bacterial growth inhibition. Results should be interpreted using validated procedures and applicable organism-specific criteria. Each pack contains five cartridges of 50 discs, providing a total of 250 discs for hospital laboratories, clinical microbiology laboratories, diagnostic centres and research institutions.
