Product Overview

Where contamination has occurred, and the sample cannot be discarded for certain reasons, the MycoZap^TM Mycoplasma Elimination Reagent can clear detectable mycoplasma contamination in as few as 4 days. The MycoZap^TM Reagent has been optimized to eliminate mycoplasma with minimal toxic effects on the infected cells. It eliminates mycoplasma by using a combination of antibiotic and antimetabolic agents. This approach allows for a highly reliable elimination of mycoplasma that cannot be achieved by the use of antibiotics alone. The MycoZap^TM Reagent can be used to eradicate mollicutes, including Mycoplasma, Acholeplasma, Spiroplasma and Entomoplasma species in cell cultures.
