Description

BD BBL Martin-Lewis Agar, 100 Ea - Product Usage: used for the isolation of pathogenic Neisseria from specimens containing mixed flora of bacteria and fungi. Catalog Number: 221558

Reason

Products show heavy growth of C. albicans after 24 hours of incubation due to misformulation (expected reaction is partial inhibition after 18-48 hours incubation) and reduce the identification of Neisseria contributing to a delay in time to definitive diagnosis or a delay in proper treatment
