For generating an oxygen-depleted and CO2 enriched atmosphere in a 2.5L anaerobic jar (Cat. No. 1.16387.0001) for culturing Campylobacter species and other microorganisms with fastidious requirements (e.g. Neisseria species, Capnocytophaga species, Eikenella corrodens, Haemophilus species). Concentrations of about 8-10% by volume CO2 and 5-7% by volume oxygen are attained.
