Which reference strains do you need for internal quality control?

As a rule, the instructions for use (IFU) provide information on the recommended strains and quality controls from the manufacturers. If you have any questions or need help, please contact us. We are happy to help and provide you with a non-binding offer.

Is handling reference strains subject to approval?

An approval requirement for the use of reference strains in medical laboratories, limited to the purpose of quality management of your in-vitro diagnostics, is not clearly regulated. We therefore recommend that you make an informal notification to your responsible supervisory authority, e.g. the district government.

Do I have to reorder the strains regularly?

You have the option of either (1) propagating the strains yourself using a cryo-method (freezing and re-growing the stock cultures) and storing them long-term. For this we recommend KWIK-STIK™ combined with a storage system (e.g. Cryobank® System).
Alternatively (2), if you do not want to propagate the strains yourself, but want to reorder them after consumption, you can choose between LYFO DISK™ and Microtrol™.

Application videos on handling reference strains and setting up the cryobank can be found in our " Self-Study " section at www.aurosan.de

We have also compiled a further overview on the topic of "Reference strains for internal quality control" for you in our Info Memo .
