Intended use: HardyDisk™ anaerobic differentiation disks (also referred to as special-potency disks) are used to verify gram stain reactions of anaerobic bacteria and are especially helpful with certain clostridia that tend to stain gram-negative; they are useful in separating anaerobic, gram-negative bacilli into several groups, aiding in their presumptive identification
Storage: Upon receipt store at -20 to 8°C away from direct light; the disks should not be used if there are any signs of deterioration, discoloration or if the expiration date has passed, protect from light, excessive heat and moisture
For the differentiation of anaerobic bacteria based on susceptibility to vancomycin; each cartridge contains 50 disks that are spring loaded for smooth and reliable dispensing from the single metal disk dispenser
