MAST Linezolid 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs – 250 Discs

MAST Linezolid 10 µg Antibiotic Susceptibility Discs are high-quality diagnostic laboratory discs designed to determine the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to linezolid using the standard agar disc diffusion method. Each disc contains 10 micrograms of linezolid, an oxazolidinone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit and preventing the formation of the functional initiation complex. Manufactured by MAST Group under the MASTDISCS range, these antibiotic-impregnated paper discs provide standardised antibiotic concentrations and support consistent, reproducible inhibition zone measurements during antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The discs are particularly relevant for assessing linezolid susceptibility in appropriate Gram-positive bacterial isolates, including certain Staphylococcus, Streptococcus and Enterococcus species. 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.
