INTENDED USE
- BacterTube™ Sterile Physiological Saline (NS 0,85%) is recommended for procedures that require the use of an isotonic diluent. It is also recommended foruse in preparing test suspensions of organisms
PRINCIPLES
- Saline is useful as a diluent to maintain cell integrity andviability because it lacks properties that may interfere with biochemical reactions and/or antibiotic susceptibility tests. The concentration of sodium chloride in 0.85% (normal) Saline provides osmotic protection for microbial cells. Normal saline is used for preparing microbial suspensions when it is necessary to deliver a setnumber of microbes to an identification test battery, to antimicrobial agents, or to growth media used for disk susceptibility testing. It is also used in the preparing of stock solutions and serial dilutions of antimicrobial agents. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI – formerly NCCLS) recommends the use of 0.85% Saline to adjustthe turbidity of bacterial suspensions to help maintain cell integrityand viability.
- Solutions for inoculation should be prepared by inoculating the diluent with one to five isolated colonies of test organism.
- The suspension should be adjusted to the concentration of the appropriate McFarland inoculum standard.
