Workflow that’s as easy as 1-2-3

Sometimes, the simplest things make the biggest difference. As labs face the challenges of higher volumes, demand for reduced turnaround and the need to use staff resources effectively, smart workflow is critical. The efficient workflow you get with BACT/ALERT 3D instrument helps you meet those challenges, reduce risk of error and gain peace-of-mind through easy and intuitive bottle handling. In fact, the bottle-handling process is as easy as 1-2-3 with the three-step bottle loading process of Touch, Scan, Load:

• Exclusive touch-screen operation enables text-free control, facilitates bottle handling and provides instant visual and audio alerts for positive bottles
• Bar-code scanner reads bottle ID and LIS accession numbers for faster, easier bottle entry
• Patented cell flags in each cell instantly recognize bottle movements and let you load bottles anywhere in the system
• Easy procedure minimizes training requirements and enhances productivity

Safe and reliable media

The BACT/ALERT system uses media cleared for use with blood, sterile body fluids and platelets, as well as specialized media for detection of mycobacteria. Unique colorimetric technology outshines other technology by reducing false negatives due to delayed bottle entry. Triple-layer bottle design ensures appropriate environment for reliable recovery of microorganisms.

• Safety and efficiency are ensured with plastic blood culture media, pioneered by bioMérieux
• Shatter-resistant bottles reduce biohazard exposure risk
• Light-weight bottles offer cost-effective shipping and disposal - without compromising results
