Liofilchem® Furazolidone FR, Antimicrobial Susceptibility Discs, 50 µg

Liofilchem® Ticarcillin–Clavulanic Acid (TTC) 85 µg Antimicrobial Susceptibility Discs are high-quality, ready-to-use antibiotic discs designed for the standardized disk diffusion method to evaluate bacterial susceptibility to the combination of ticarcillin and clavulanic acid. This combination pairs a broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic (ticarcillin) with a beta-lactamase inhibitor (clavulanic acid), enabling accurate detection of susceptibility patterns in beta-lactamase-producing organisms.

These discs are manufactured under stringent quality control to ensure consistent antibiotic potency and reliable diffusion characteristics. They are widely used in clinical microbiology laboratories, hospital diagnostic laboratories, pharmaceutical quality control, and research institutions to support antimicrobial resistance surveillance and guide effective antimicrobial therapy.

The TTC discs are specifically developed for use with standardized susceptibility testing methods such as the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion technique on Mueller-Hinton agar, with interpretation based on internationally recognized guidelines including CLSI and EUCAST standards. The combination of ticarcillin and clavulanic acid enhances activity against organisms producing beta-lactamase enzymes, making these discs particularly valuable for evaluating susceptibility in Gram-negative organisms such as Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas species.

Liofilchem discs are supplied in protective cartridges or canisters that maintain stability, prevent moisture exposure, and ensure long shelf life. Each disc contains a precise concentration of TTC (85 µg), allowing reproducible zone of inhibition results for accurate antimicrobial susceptibility profiling.

Applications

• Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) using disk diffusion method
• Detection of beta-lactamase-producing bacteria
• Clinical diagnostic microbiology testing
• Pharmaceutical microbiology quality control
• Antibiotic resistance monitoring and surveillance
• Research in antimicrobial resistance and microbiology
