Description
Manually determine the antibiotic susceptibility of microorganisms using Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) methods in conjunction with reliable, easy-to-use Oxoid™ Novobiocin Antimicrobial Susceptibility discs.
Ease of use is provided by shatterproof spring-loaded cartridges, easy-to-read labeling and end-of-cartridge indicators.
Disc diffusion not only categorizes resistant, intermediate and sensitive organisms through quantitative results, but also provides a visual indication of the following:
Each cartridge is individually sealed with a desiccant to maintain a moisture level of <2%, ensuring long term stability.
Disc diffusion not only categorizes resistant, intermediate and sensitive organisms through quantitative results, but also provides a visual indication of the following:
- Inoculum level
- Presence of contamination
- Resistant mutants
- Beta-lactamase activity
- Antagonism and synergy between antibiotics
