Description
Oxoid Bacillus cereus selective supplement is a freeze-dried laboratory additive formulated to inhibit gram-negative bacteria during selective culture work. Each tube provides 50.000 IU and is sufficient for preparation of 500 ml of medium, supporting consistent batch preparation in food and environmental microbiology. The supplement can be added to Bacillus cereus Selective Agar Base (part no. CM0617B) and to MYP Agar Base (part no. CM0929B), enabling targeted recovery and differentiation workflows for Bacillus cereus on established base media. Supplied as a convenient 10-tube pack from manufacturer Altmann Analytik, the lyophilised format is intended for laboratories that require ready-to-reconstitute selective enrichment without preparing inhibitors from bulk reagents. Used according to the corresponding base-medium protocols, it helps suppress competing gram-negative flora so that characteristic Bacillus colonies can develop under selective conditions. This pack size suits routine media kitchens and quality-control units that prepare multiple 500 ml lots.
This article is part of Test tubes, in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Oxoid Bacillus Cereus, Selective supplement,10 tubes (for 500 ml culture medium)
What is this article?
Oxoid Bacillus Cereus, Selective supplement,10 tubes (for 500 ml culture medium) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Altmann Analytik for laboratory use. It sits in Test tubes, inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A test tube is the open cylindrical vessel for a small liquid, in borosilicate glass or in plastic. Rimmed and rimless mouths differ. The size is diameter by length. It is not graduated for a result, and a glass tube that will be centrifuged has a force limit.
A tube holds a small sample upright. A test tube is the open glass or plastic cylinder. A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet forms at the tip, and it is rated for a centrifugal force the rotor will actually reach. A vial is a small closed bottle, often for a sample that will sit in an instrument. NMR tubes are a special case: the glass has to be uniform or the spectrum is the tube, not the sample. Laboratory ware is listed under ISO laboratory glassware.
