Oxygen Indicator is used to indicate an anaerobic environment (for 2.5L anaerobic culture bag)
1. Intended Use:
An oxygen indicator, indicate anaerobic
conditions.
2. Principle:
Methylene blue and other reagents indicate oxygen
content.
3. The main constituent:
Methylene blue, agar etc.
4. Storage conditions and valid time:
4.1. Keep in dark place and at room
temperature
4.2. Valid for one year.
5. Applicable Instruments:

The surface of control of
this product should become blue
9. Result analysis:
The product become pink
in oxygen-free environment within 1h, blue color of surface fades, while surface
of the control in the air is still blue, indicating that color change can
indicate aerobic and anaerobic environments.

pink peptone-like, and will precipitate a small amount of water on the surface,
it does not affect use.
12. Note:
12. 1. This product is only used to
indicate oxygen environment.
12. 2. The residue must be disinfected
after using the product.
