"...allows better isolation of clinically significant anaerobes."

                                                      ~ D.P. from Georgia

The OxyPRAS Plus® Plate (Pre-Reduced Anaerobically Sterilized) is different from conventionally made PRAS plates due to the Oxyrase® Enzyme System.

Oxyrase® used during the manufacture of the plate prevents oxidation during its preparation.  Oxyrase® is again added to the final plate. Oxyrase® keeps the plate reduced and confers properties to the OxyPRAS Plus® plate not found in standard or conventional PRAS plates. PRAS plates are needed to isolate all Anaerobes from clinical specimens.

The list of microorganisms known to grow in media supplemented with Oxyrase® is always growing and can be found here.

OxyPRAS Plus® plates surpass standard plates in important ways:

* Specifically manufactured to increase the recovery of injured cells
* Arrive reduced and ready to use
* Stay reduced on the bench top for 2 hours
* 3-month refrigerated shelf-life
* Meet Best Practice criteria for working with clinical anaerobes.
