The product with the catalog number EM073 from HiMedia Laboratories is the Itraconazole Ezy MIC Strip (ITR). DescriptionThe EM073 Ezy MIC Strip is a unique, porous paper strip used for the quantitative determination of the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Itraconazole against yeast and fungi. 

• Principle: The strip works based on the principle of dilution and diffusion, creating a stable concentration gradient when placed on an appropriate agar medium.
• Concentration Range: The strip is coated with Itraconazole in a concentration gradient ranging from 0.002 mcg/ml to 32 mcg/ml.
• Reading Scale: The MIC reading scale in g/ml is printed identically on both sides of the strip, along with the three-letter symbol "ITR" for easy identification.
• Material Advantages: Unlike traditional plastic strips, the paper material of the Ezy MIC strip allows it to be adsorbed and adhere firmly to the agar surface within 60 seconds, preventing air bubbles from forming underneath. MIC values can often be read without removing the petri dish lid if a translucent medium is used.
• Usage: It is intended for in vitro testing, following overnight incubation, to guide physicians in selecting appropriate antifungal therapy.
