    H.6 INVESTIGATION SUMMARY: THIS COMPLAINT IS NOT CONFIRMED. THIS COMPLAINT IS FOR MISIDENTIFICATION OF STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS AS STAPHYLOCOCCUS EPIDERMIDIS WHEN USING PHOENIX PANEL NMIC/ID 307 (449289) BATCH 2200759. THE CUSTOMER DID NOT RETURN ISOLATES, LAB REPORTS OR PANELS FOR INVESTIGATION. TO INVESTIGATE, THREE (3) RETENTION PANELS FROM THE COMPLAINT BATCH 2200759 WERE TESTED USING QC ISOLATE E. COLI (A25922) AND THREE (3) RETENTION PANELS WERE TESTED WITH QC SAMPLE M. MORGANII (ENF 9824) AND EVALUATED FOR IDENTIFICATION RESULTS. DURING INVESTIGATION, ALL SIX PANELS IDENTIFIED CORRECTLY AS E. COLI AND M. MORGANII. THEREFORE, THIS COMPLAINT IS NOT CONFIRMED. A REVIEW OF QUALITY NOTIFICATIONS REVEALED NO QUALITY NOTIFICATIONS GENERATED ON THE COMPLAINT BATCH. A REVIEW OF COMPLAINTS REVEALED TWO ADDITIONAL COMPLAINTS ON THE COMPLAINT BATCH, NONE OF WHICH ARE RELATED TO THIS DEFECT. COMPLAINT TRENDING WAS PERFORMED AND NO TRENDS WERE IDENTIFIED ASSOCIATED WITH THIS DEFECT. BD ID/AST PLANT QUALITY WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR TRENDS AND TAKE ACTION AS NECESSARY. PLEASE CONTINUE TO COMMUNICATE ANY ADDITIONAL CONCERNS. THE FOLLOWING ARE GUIDELINES TO HELP MINIMIZE PHOENIX AST ISSUES: MEDIA SELECTION. ISOLATES MUST BE RECOVERED FROM NON-SELECTIVE MEDIA. SEE TABLE 16 RECOMMENDED MEDIA IN THE BD USER MANUAL FOR A LIST OF RECOMMENDED MEDIA. ENSURE QUALITY OF VENDOR SELECTION FOR PLATED MEDIA. VARIATIONS IN FORMULATIONS MAY IMPACT RESULTS. CULTURE HANDLING: CULTURES MUST BE 18-24 HOURS OLD FOR GRAM-NEGATIVE & GRAM-POSITIVE ORGANISMS AND 18-48 HOURS OLD FOR YEAST ORGANISMS. FOR QC ORGANISMS, ENSURE ORGANISMS HAVE BEEN SUBCULTURED AT LEAST TWICE ON TWO CONSECUTIVE DAYS ON PROPER NONSELECTIVE MEDIA (GRAM-NEGATIVE OR GRAM-POSITIVE ORGANISMS: TSA WITH 5% SHEEP BLOOD, YEAST: SABOURAUD DEXTROSE AGAR). MCFARLAND PREPARATION: USE OF A LOW-QUALITY STERILE COTTON SWAB, WHICH SHED FIBERS, COULD POTENTIALLY CONTRIBUTE TO A FALSELY HIGH MCFARLAND READING. POLYESTER SWABS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED. ENSURE BD APPROVED NEPHELOMETER IS ADEQUATELY CALIBRATED WITH NOT EXPIRED MCFARLAND CALIBRATION TUBES. PREPARED TUBES SHOULD BE VORTEXED FOR 5 SECONDS AND ALLOWED APPROXIMATELY 10 SECONDS FOR AIR BUBBLES TO SURFACE. ENSURE MCFARLAND FALLS WITHIN PROPER RANGE OF THE INOCULUM DENSITY. FOR 0.5 MCFARLAND SYSTEM, 0.50-0.60 IS ACCEPTABLE. FOR 0.25 MCFARLAND SYSTEM, 0.20-0.30 IS ACCEPTABLE. FOR YEAST PANELS, 2.00-2.40 IS ACCEPTABLE. CONFIRM CURRENT INSTRUMENT SETTINGS FOR INOCULUM DENSITY BEFORE INOCULATING PANELS. FOR EXAMPLE, ENSURE A 0.50 MCFARLAND WAS NOT PREPARED FOR A 0.25 INOCULUM DENSITY INSTRUMENT SETTING. USE BACTERIAL SUSPENSIONS WITHIN 60 MINUTES OF PREPARATION. PANEL PREPARATION: PANELS SHOULD BE USED WITHIN 2 HOURS OF REMOVAL FROM POUCH. INOCULATE PANELS WITHIN 30 MINUTES OF THE TIME THAT THE AST BROTH INOCULUM IS PREPARED. ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME FOR FLUID TO TRAVERSE DOWN THE WELL TRACKS BEFORE MOVING THE PANEL. AVOID TOUCHING THE FRONT AND BACKSIDE OF THE PANEL. HANDLE PANELS BY THE SIDES TO AVOID PRODUCING SMUDGES ON THE SURFACE OF THE PANELS. INOCULATED PANELS SHOULD BE HANDLED WITH CARE. AVOID KNOCKING OR JARRING THE PANEL. LOAD PANELS INTO INSTRUMENT WITHIN 30 MINUTES OF INOCULATION. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR CONTACTING BD AND PLEASE CONTINUE TO COMMUNICATE ANY FURTHER CONCERNS.
