The Haemophilus ID Quad-Plate was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on April 17, 1984. Manufactured by Gibco Laboratories Life Technologies, it is classified as a Class 1 device.
What It Is
The Haemophilus ID Quad-Plate is a culture medium designed to facilitate the identification of Haemophilus species, which are significant in respiratory infections. The quad-plate format allows for the simultaneous testing of multiple samples, enhancing laboratory efficiency. It works by providing necessary growth factors and conditions that support the growth of Haemophilus bacteria, allowing for their identification based on colony morphology and biochemical reactions.
Clinical Applications
This device is commonly used in clinical microbiology laboratories for the identification of Haemophilus species in patient samples. It is particularly useful in diagnosing respiratory tract infections, especially in pediatric and immunocompromised populations. The device is utilized in hospital laboratories and reference labs where accurate and rapid identification of pathogens is critical for patient management.
Indications for Use
The FDA indications suggest that this device is used for identifying Haemophilus species in clinical specimens. It is intended for use in diagnosing infections caused by these bacteria, which can include respiratory tract infections and other systemic infections.
Practical Considerations
The Haemophilus ID Quad-Plate is typically compatible with standard laboratory incubators and requires careful handling to avoid contamination. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for optimal growth conditions and accurate results.
