Stuart Transport Medium (Dehydrated)

Simplify transport and maintenance of fastidious, pathogenic organisms with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Stuart Transport Medium. This improved medium was originally described by Moffett et al.¹ and Stuart et al.² and is a non-nutritional semi-solid substrate for the preservation of Neisseria species and other fastidious organisms during their transport from clinic to laboratory.

Although originally formulated for the conservation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Trichomonas vaginalis, the medium can also be used for the transport of other bacteriological specimens.
