Performance evaluation of the VersaTREK blood culture system for quality control testing of platelet units.

Suparna Nanua1, Carol Weber, Liz Isgriggs, W Michael Dunne.   

Abstract

The performance of the VersaTREK blood culture system for the detection of a bacterial contamination of platelet concentrates was assessed using samples spiked with serial dilutions of nine bacterial species associated with platelet contamination. The system detected growth for all organisms in <20 h, and the detection sensitivity was <20 CFU/ml.
