The Liofilchem™ Enterosystem 18R Code Book is a comprehensive reference tool designed to assist in the interpretation of results generated from the Liofilchem™ Enterosystem 18R diagnostic panel. This code book plays a crucial role in the accurate identification of Gram-negative, oxidase-negative Enterobacteria based on the biochemical reactions evaluated during testing.
Purpose
- Identification of Microorganisms: The code book allows users to match the unique biochemical profile generated by the Enterosystem 18R to specific bacterial species.
- Streamlined Analysis: Converts biochemical reactions into a numerical code, simplifying the identification process.
- Comprehensive Reference: Covers a wide range of Enterobacteria, ensuring robust diagnostic capabilities.
Key Features
- Biochemical Profile Interpretation:
- Each reaction in the 18 biochemical tests is recorded as positive or negative.
- Positive reactions are assigned numerical values, which are summed within groups to create a profile number.
- Microbial Identification:
- The numerical profile is cross-referenced in the code book to determine the corresponding bacterial species.
- Wide Scope of Identification:
- Includes clinically significant pathogens such as:
- Escherichia coli
- Shigella spp.
- Salmonella spp.
- Klebsiella spp.
- Proteus spp.
- Yersinia spp.
- Covers less common species for enhanced diagnostic reach.
- Includes clinically significant pathogens such as:
- User-Friendly Format:
- Organized alphabetically or by numerical codes for quick lookup.
- Designed for ease of use, even for laboratories with high workloads.
- Compatibility:
- Specifically designed for use with the Liofilchem™ Enterosystem 18R panel.
- Supports both manual interpretation and automated result analysis when integrated with compatible systems.
How to Use the Code Book
- Perform Biochemical Tests:
- Inoculate and incubate the Enterosystem 18R panel as per the protocol.
- Observe and record the color changes in each well after 12–24 hours of incubation.
- Generate a Numerical Code:
- Group the test results into categories as per the Enterosystem 18R protocol.
- Assign a numerical value to positive reactions and calculate the profile code.
- Identify the Organism:
- Refer to the Enterosystem 18R Code Book to match the profile code with the corresponding bacterial species.
- Confirm identification using supplementary tests if needed.
