Appraisal of Anotox, a new anaerobic atmospheric detoxifying agent for use in anaerobic cabinets.
Using Clostridium sporogenes cultures, inhibitory effects of its gaseous metabolic end products on the activity of palladium Deoxo catalyst and on surface growth of some clinically significant anaerobes were demonstrated. A new product "Anotox" was shown to absorb these metabolites, which enabled uninhibited growth of anaerobes, and prolonged the life of the catalyst.
