Quality Control of BACT/ALERT® Culture Media

Using Various BIOBALL™ Organisms Preparations

AABB Annual Meeting • SAN DIEGO, CA •  2017

 

The BACT/ALERT® BPA and BPN culture bottles are used with the BACT/ALERT Microbial Detection System for rapid screening and detection of microbial contamination In Leukocyte Reduced Apheresis Platelets (LRAP). Due to recent audit and accreditation programs like that of AABB, additional quality control of manufacturers’ media is suggested that is both lot specific and shipment specific to ensure the sterility and validated recovery of bacterial growth. 

A study was conducted using commercially prepared organisms evaluating both a comprehensive organism panel as well as a streamlined method utilizing only two organisms from the panel.
