ANTIBIOTIC ASSAY MEDIUM H

Antibiotic Assay Medium H is employed for turbidimetric assay of Apramycin, an antibiotic of the aminocyclitol group, using Salmonella cholerasuis. It isformulated in accordance with British Pharmacopoeia. Turbidimetric antibiotic assay is based on the change or inhibition of growth of a test microorganism in a liquid medium containing a uniform concentration of an antibiotic. Use of this method is appropriate only when test samples are clear. Turbidimetric methods for determining the potency of antibiotics are inherently more accurate and more precise than comparable agar diffusion procedures.
