DIAGNOSTIC DISCS 100 discs Code: DD 502
1000 discs DD 5021
for the presumptive identification of haemophili

Product categories

Purpose and usage

BACITRACIN H diagnostic discs are used for presumptive identification of Haemophili in primary culture.

Principle

The test is based on higher resistance of Haemophili to bacitracin (10 i.u.) in comparison with other microbes, joined with the ability of Haemophili to grow in the diffusioin zone of growth factors produced by Staphylococci.

Procedure

Inoculate blood agar with a throat swab or other clinical material and smear as usual. Apply a staphylococcal line onto the inoculated material. Place a sterile ITEST BACITRACIN H disc in it and incubate for 24 hours at 37 °C.

Evaluation

Bacterial colonies which grow after incubation in the diffusion zone of bacitracin in the vicinity of the staphylococcal line can be considered as Haemophili.

Important

ITEST BACITRACIN H discs are supplied in packs of 100 (Cat. No. DD 502) or 1000 (Cat. No. 5021) and are intended for in vitro use only.
Keep the discs in a dark place at 2–8 °C and use by the expiry date on the package.
