The unique NAC-PAC Red™ system offers all the advantages 
of the traditional NAC-PAC™ products and includes a pH indicator. 
By adding the pH indicator to the NaOH reagents, the pH of the 
specimen can be monitored and adjusted with proper neutralizing 
buffers to a neutral pH. The pH of the decontaminated specimen 
should be less then 8.1 immediately after buffering and held 
between 6.9 to 7.1 for culturing. This insures pH tolerance for the 
maximum survival of  Mycobacteria.  This can be best accomplished 
with the use of NAC-PAC Red™ followed by neutralization with 
either XPR-plus™ Buffer or NPC-67™ Buffer and then followed with 
the Pellet Resuspension Buffer.

Each NAC-PAC™ System contains all pre-matched reagents 
necessary for the decontamination and digestion of specimens 
for the recovery of Mycobacterium spp. Each NAC-PAC™ is 
packaged with five ampules of premeasured NALC 
(N-acetyl-L-cysteine) and five bottles of premixed and filtered 
TB Digestion Solution (Sodium Hydroxide [NaOH] with Trisodium 
Citric Acid [TSCA]).  These ready-to-use reagents eliminate time-
consuming hours of weighing, pH adjusting & filtering and requires 
no additional measuring or mixing vessels.
