    Description

    BIOFIRE Blood Culture Identification 2 (BCID2) Panel, REF: RFIT-ASY-0147, used with Maine Molecular Quality Controls, Inc (MMQCI) FilmArray BCID2 Control Panel M416, which is referenced in Quality Control Materials for use with BIOFIRE FILMARRAY and BIOFIRE SPOTFIRE Panels - FLM1-PRT-0251

    Reason

    Routine quality control testing of affected blood culture identification panel with affected control panel may need to be amended, due to control panel/instrument characteristic changes, that lead C. tropicalis to be amplified in some portion of test runs, but then it's reported as "Not Detected" because the assay amplicon Tm is outside the acceptable limit assigned for calling positive results.
