1.2 antibiotic susceptibility identification process


(Fig.1-1 antibiotic susceptibility identification process)
First of all, the pure cultured specimen strain should be prepared into bacterial suspension, which should be added into the kit according to the specified requirements. Then, the kit should be placed in an incubator at 35℃ for incubation of 18-24 hours. Then, the detection system automatically detects the kit according to the instructions, and records the spectral and absorbance values of each hole. The analysis system automatically processes the information received to give the bacterial species and antibitoic susceptibility test results. Finally, you can output the report via the printer. This is shown in Fig. 1-1.

1. Users shall ensure the electromagnetic compatibility environment of the device to enable the device to work normally. It is recommended to assess the electromagnetic environment prior to use of the device;
2. Basic performance
-Absolute value of the measurement accuracy of the BCMD-101 should be ≤0.15.
-When it is working, both the monitor and the indicator lights shall work normally.
-It can print normally.
3. Test methods

- The wavelength of 492nm should be selected, air should be used as a reference, and then the calibrated standard glass plate with a nominal value of about 1.5A should be placed in specimen position of the instrument kit tray for continuous measurement for 3 times. The test results of any selected hole shall be calculated according to formula (1), and the absolute value of measurement accuracy shall be ≤0.15.
Wherein: Ai -- absorbance value measured at the ith time; As -- calibrated value of absorbance.
- During visual inspection, the monitor should work normally, and states of the indicator lights should correspond to the working modes one by one.
- After generating the report, execute the printing operation to print.
