The Zeptometrix NATtrol ME Panel is designed to guage the efficiency of nucleic acid checks for willpower of the presence of viral, bacterial and fungal nucleic acids. NATMEP-BIO can be used for verification of medical assays, growth of diagnostic checks and coaching of laboratory personnel. NATMEP-BIO accommodates intact organisms and needs to be run in a fashion equivalent to that used for medical specimens.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
NATtrol Meningitis/Encephalitis (ME) Controls (NATMECBIO)* are formulated with purified, intact virus particles, bacterial and fungal cells which were chemically modified to render them non-infectious and fridge steady. Every management pack accommodates 6 x 0.2 mL vials of ME Management 1 and 6 x 0.2 mL vials of ME Management 2. NATtrolTM ME Controls are equipped in a purified protein matrix that mimics the composition of a real medical specimen.
INTENDED USE:
ï‚· NATtrol ME Controls are designed to guage the efficiency of nucleic acid checks for willpower of
the presence of viral, bacterial and fungal nucleic acids. NATMEC-BIO can be used for assessing lot-to-lot
take a look at package efficiency and coaching of laboratory personnel.
ï‚· NATMEC-BIO accommodates intact organisms and needs to be run in a fashion equivalent to that used for medical
specimens.
ETIOLOGIC STATUS/BIOHAZARD TESTING:
ï‚· NATtrol™ inactivation was carried out on the shares used to formulate every management. The inactivation was verified by the absence of development in validated tissue tradition based mostly infectivity assays and development protocols.
ï‚· Purified protein matrix used within the manufacture of this product is handled with 0.09% sodium azide. It was manufactured from supplies which were examined and located non-reactive on the donor stage for HIV-1/HIV-2 Antibody, HBsAg and HCV Antibody by FDA licensed donor screening take a look at strategies.
All supplies are additionally examined for HIV-1 and HCV by FDA authorised Nucleic Acid Check (NAT) strategies. Warmth inactivated bovine based mostly supply supplies used within the manufacture of this product meet relevant USDA necessities for abattoir sourced animals, traceability and nation of origin. The supplies have been collected at USDA licensed institutions or legally imported from international locations acknowledged by the USDA as negligible or managed for danger for Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) and different unique illness brokers. Donor animals have been inspected ante and put up mortem on the abattoir as required by the USDA.
PRECAUTIONS:
ï‚· Though NATMEC-BIO accommodates inactivated organisms, it needs to be dealt with as if probably infectious.
ï‚· Use Common Precautions when dealing with this product.
ï‚· To keep away from cross-contamination, use separate pipette suggestions for all reagents.
RECOMMENDED STORAGE:
 NATtrol RP2 Controls needs to be saved at 2-8°C.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
ï‚· These controls have been examined with the BioFire Diagnostics FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) assay
and supply all anticipated outcomes for the targets listed in Desk 1.
ï‚· Comply with producer directions for loading pouches.
ï‚· Extract Nucleic Acids prior to make use of in assays that aren’t pattern to outcome.
