Clostridium difficile, commonly referred to as C. diff, is a prevalent and infectious anaerobic organism associated with diahrrea. Clostridium difficile is one of the most oxygen sensitive anaerobes, and although it is a spore former it can be difficult to culture. Anaerobe Systems manufactures a range of specialty media for growing and isolating Clostridium difficile.
Anaerobe Systems’ culture & transport media are sterilized, poured, and packaged under anaerobic conditions (TruePRAS™). There is no chance of oxygen contamination or damage any time during the manufacturing process. Our plates are pre-reduced and ready to use out of the package, without the need to leave them in an anaerobic environment for extended periods before inoculation.
