Which reference strains do you need?
As a rule, the instructions for use (IFU) of the products / devices / methods you want to check provide information on the recommended strains and quality controls for internal quality control. If you have any questions or need help with this, please contact us. We will be happy to help and provide you with a non-binding offer.
Is the use of reference strains subject to approval?
There is no clear regulation regarding the obligation to obtain approval for the use of reference strains in registered medical laboratories, limited to the purpose of quality management of your in-vitro diagnostics. Therefore, we recommend an informal notification to your responsible supervisory authority, e.g., the district government.
Do I have to repurchase the strains regularly?
You have the option to (1) maintain the strains in your own cryobank (freezing and regrowth 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 regularly establish fresh cultures from fresh pellets . 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 section Self-study at www.aurosan.de
We have also compiled an overview on the topic of "Reference strains for internal quality control" for you in our Info-Memo .
