Product Parameters

Features

• Cary-Blair transport medium is a buffered solution that helps maintain the pH balance of the specimen during transportation, prevent the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms, ensuring the viability of the pathogens being transported.
• The medium is designed to preserve the viability of enteric pathogens, such as Salmonella, Shigella, and Escherichia coli, during transportation, allowing for accurate detection and identification in the laboratory.
• Cary-Blair transport medium contains selective agents that inhibit the overgrowth of commensal bacteria and other contaminants present in the specimen.
• The medium helps maintain the moisture content of the specimen, preventing desiccation and preserving the integrity of the pathogens. This is particularly important for fecal samples, as drying can lead to the loss of viability and affect the accuracy of diagnostic tests.
• Cary-Blair transport medium has a long shelf life, allowing for convenient storage and transportation of clinical specimens.
• It is easy to use, with a simple protocol for collection and transportation of specimens. It is available in convenient formats, such as vials or tubes, making it suitable for use in various healthcare settings.
