Culture Transport Swab Amies Agar Gel with Charcoal
Single swab with Modified Amies Charcoal medium and black cap. Wrapped in convenient peel pouch.
Designed for the collection and/or transportation of a wide range of bacteria, viruses, and facultative microorganisms. Modified Amies Charcoal further enhances survival of fastidious organisms by neutralizing any toxins that may be present in the specimen. Provides an excellent environment for the survival of anaerobes through the complete immersion of the swabs into the gel and by the presence of the reducing agent, sodium thioglycollate. Swabs are tipped with inert, non-toxic rayon.
