PRINCIPLES
BacterBag™ Dry Sterile Physiological Saline with Sodium chloride at a concentration of 0,85%, maintaining the osmotic balance of the environment, ensuring cell morphology and integrity. This solution does not affect any biochemical reactions or antibiotic susceptibility testing.
- 0,85% saline solution to perform dilution of various samples.
RESULT INTERPRETATION
- Media used to dilute different samples. Therefore, it is necessary to perform secondary culture methods in other selective environments to identify bacteria
BacterLab ensures the quality of each product batch by testing with ATCC reference strains.
