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:

• The 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:

Time Result:

• Incubate 18-24 hours at 37ºC.

Storage:

• Extended 12 month shelf life (2-8°C) from the date of manufacture
• Can tolerate extended periods at controlled room temp (≤ 25˚C), with no loss in performance.

Specimen:

• Stool sample
• Environmental sample

Not for human diagnostic use.

A latex confirmation test for O157 is suggested for suspect colonies. Definite identification requires, in addition to characterization of O157 serotype, a final identification as E. coli.
