Which reference strains do you need?
Generally, the instructions for use (IFU) of the products / devices / methods you wish to test provide information on the recommended strains and quality controls for internal quality control. If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact us. We will be happy to help and provide you with a non-binding offer.
Is the handling of reference strains subject to approval?
The requirement for approval when using reference strains in a registered medical laboratory, limited to the purpose of quality management of your in-vitro diagnostics, is not clearly regulated. Therefore, we recommend an informal notification to your responsible supervisory authority, e.g., the regional government office.
Do I have to repurchase the strains regularly?
You have the option to either (1) maintain the strains in your own cryobank (freezing and regrowing of stock cultures) and store them long-term. For this, we recommend Multi-CultiControl (1 pellet + 1 rehydrating fluid vial) combined with a storage system (e.g., Cryobank® System).
Alternatively, (2) you can work without your own cryobank and establish fresh cultures from fresh pellets regularly. For this, you can choose between CultiControl or Microtrol™ products.
Application videos on handling reference strains and establishing the cryobank can be found in our Self-Study section at www.aurosan.de
We have also compiled an overview on "Reference Strains for Internal Quality Control" for you in our Info-Memo.
