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.
• 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 stage for observation through the cassette’s clear anti-fog window
• Selectively produces distinctive colony growth with typical identifiable morphology

Accurate Detection:

Time Result:

• 1 – 21 days, incubated at 25ºC for positive dermatophyte identification

Storage:

• Extended 12-month shelf life (2-25ºC) from the date of manufacture
• Can tolerate extended periods at controlled room temp (<25º) with no loss in performance

Specimen:

• Nails
• Hair
• Skin

If a fungal infection is strongly suspected and the culture test result is negative, it may be appropriate to retest giving more care to specimen collection. Optimally, simultaneously inoculate samples on both InTray DM-FungID & InTray SAB without antimicrobials (e.g., for some pathogenic fungi inhibited by antimicrobials)

Transfer of fungal growth to slide examination: Stained slide preparations can be made as appropriate based on 10x Obj. examination of InTray SABFungID. InTray Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) can be used to induce sporulation
