Antibiotic Medium No. 1 (Dehydrated)

Catalog number: CM0327B

Carry out microbiological assay of antibiotics with the seed layer of Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Antibiotic Medium No.1 (Dehydrated). This is one of the most important media in antibiotic assay work and it is in a specially modified form to take advantage of the properties of Oxoid Agar No.1. (LP0011).

Certain agars have inhibitory properties towards some antibiotics, particularly streptomycin, kanamycin, polymyxin B and neomycin1. Oxoid Antibiotic Medium No.1 does not share these inhibitory properties and is therefore especially suited for antibiotic assay work.
