Which reference strains do you need for internal quality control?
Usually, 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 with this, please contact us. We are happy to help and provide you with a non-binding offer.
Is handling reference strains subject to approval?
There is no clear regulation regarding the obligation to obtain approval for the use of reference strains in medical laboratories, limited to the purpose of quality management of your in-vitro diagnostics. Therefore, we recommend that you informally notify 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) re-culture the strains yourself using a cryo-procedure (freezing and re-growing the stock cultures) and store 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 re-culture the strains yourself but want to repurchase them after use, you can choose between LYFO DISK™ and Microtrol™ .
Application videos on handling the reference germs and setting up the cryobank can be found in our section " Self-study " 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 .
