McFarland BSS 0.5

Designed with efficiency in synthetic processes in mind, the Mcfarland BSS 0.5 falls under the category of accessories for microbiology. It serves as a crucial tool for adjusting cell density in comparisons to standards, either visually or through spectrophotometry. With a turbidity value of 0.5 McFarland Units corresponding to approximately 1.5 x 10^8 cells/ml, it provides an ideal bacterial inoculum for antibiotic susceptibility tests. The absorption is measured at a wavelength of 625 nm. Additionally, this product features a density of 1.01 g/cm³ and is stored between +15 to +25 °C. While not classified as a medical device or an IVD product, its role in maintaining consistent cell densities for microbiological applications remains significant.
