OxyPlates – Schaedler Blood Agar

OxyPlates™ generate their own anaerobic environment. Prepoured OxyPlates™ are made for the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory.

OxyPlates™ create anaerobic environments in a unique way … from the plate up. The agar plate is actively reduced by Oxyrase®. Anaerobic microbes put on that surface are protected from oxygen until the environment inside the OxyDish™ is supportive of their growth.

OxyPlates™ offer many advantages over traditional anaerobic methods. Streak the OxyPlate™ and incubate it in a standard incubator aerobically. OxyPlates™ can be opened and closed, and they will regenerate anaerobic conditions.

OxyPlates™ free you from the complications and expenses of bags, jars, anaerobic incubators and chambers. OxyPlates™ are made PRAS. They come to you reduced and ready to use. They can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated, for a longer shelf life.

OxyPlates™ can be used for primary isolation of anaerobes in laboratories that choose to replace bags, jars, and chambers. Click here to see several common clinical anaerobes grown on Oxyplates™.

OxyPlates™ can be used for subbing anaerobe isolates from primary plates in all laboratories, regardless of the method used or the source of primary media.  Click here for more information.
