Oxoid™ Replacement Desiccant (Press-down Dispenser) (1 pc)
Ensure a low-humidity environment when storing antibiotic susceptibility discs for manual susceptibility testing with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Replacement Desiccant (Disc Dispenser).
Oxoid Replacement Desiccant is suitable for both the 8- and 12-place Oxoid antimicrobial disc dispensers.
As one of the simplest and most widely used methods of susceptibility testing, disc diffusion is extremely flexible and offers a wide range of antibiotic and concentration options that can be interchanged as needed.
Disc diffusion not only allows for the categorization of resistant, intermediate, and sensitive organisms through quantitative results, but also visually displays the following parameters:
- Inoculum value
- Presence of contamination
- Resistant mutants
- Beta-lactamase activity
- Antagonism and synergies between antibiotics
