Specifications

Product Principle:

  • Combine collection, culture, result and microscopic observation in one IVD device.
  • Highly selective prepared media in a device designed for in-vitro specimen transport and incubation.
  • Rapid presumptive-positive diagnosis without re-plating.  Intray can be placed directly on microscope stage
  • Fully enclosed cassette with Tyvek® air filtration prevents contamination and exposure, post-collection.

Simple Convenience:

  • InTray is designed for specimen collection/ inoculation at point-of-care
  • Saves time, material cost and waste, reducing exposure to collected sample
  • Place directly on the microscope tray for observation through the cassette’s clear anti-fog window
  • Selectively produces distinctive colony growth with typical identifiable morphology

Accurate Detection:

Test Strain ATCC # Colony Appearance
C. albicans 60193 Green
C. tropicalis 66029 Metallic Blue
C. kreusei 14243 Fuzzy Pink
C. glabrata 2001 White to mauve
Bacteria Inhibited

Time Result:

  • Incubate at 30-37°C for 48 hours under ambient atmosphere

Storage:

  • InTray COLOREX Yeast has a shelf life of 12 months from the date of manufacture.
  • Upon receipt, store InTray COLOREX Yeast under refrigeration (2-8°C). Medium can be kept for one day at ambient temperature. Avoid freezing or prolonged storage at temperatures above 40°C. Do not open until ready to use. Do not use if the medium shows signs of deterioration or contamination.

Specimen:

  • Skin
  • Sputum
  • Urine
  • Genito-urethral swabs

 

For in vitro diagnostic use only.

Specificity and sensitivity for C. albicans, C. tropicalis and C. krusei exceed 99%
(Odds and Bernaerts 1994; J Clin Microbiol; 32).

Definitive identification requires additional testing.

Detects

Candida albicans | C. tropicalis | C. krusei | C. glabrata

Features

01.    SHELF-LIFE AND DURABILITY

  • Designed for durability, stackable for incubation, or long life 12-month storage.
  • No re-plate or wet mount
  • Once InTray is inoculated, no other culture preparation is required… saving time and cost.
  • Designed for specimen collection/inoculation at point-of-care, a fully enclosed system for transport, incubation, result and microscopic observation.
  • The sealed prepared media device is selectively formulated for accurate detection and identification of pathogens and non-pathogens
  • Visual chromogenic differentiation and/or selective production of distinctive colony growth with typical identifiable morphology

02.    KEY FEATURES

  • Fully enclosed cassette with air filtration system
  • Nutritive culture colony growth medium, formulated for selectivity and specificity

03.    YOU’LL IMMEDIATELY EXPERIENCE A REDUCTION IN:

  • Time-to-result
  • Cost of laboratory materials
  • Medical waste
  • Risk of exposure or contamination
