McFarland PMS 0.5

Produced for stability across temperature-sensitive applications, the Mcfarland PMS 0.5 serves as an essential accessory in microbiology. Its purpose lies in adjusting cell density for comparative analysis against standards, either visually or through spectrophotometry. Corresponding to roughly 1.5 x 10^8 cells/ml, it functions as a crucial bacterial inoculum for antibiotic susceptibility tests. Measuring absorption at 625 nm, this polymer microparticle suspension offers improved separation compared to traditional barium sulfate standards, ensuring reliable results within your microbiological studies. Store it between 15 and 25°C, boil it up to 100°C, and melt it at 0°C for optimal use.
