Description
Each frozen aliquot contains 1 mL of a pure,
titered culture of Candida auris. The identification
of this organism was confirmed by ITS2
sequencing. The purity of the culture was
monitored by Gram staining and by additional
culturing. The titer was performed on one aliquot
after freezing. The freezing medium contains 15%
glycerol as a cryoprotectant. Please see the
Certificate of Analysis for the specific freezing
medium used.
Intended Use
Candida auris live, titered microorganisms can be used to determine a limit of detection (LOD), in diagnostic assay development or cross-reactivity studies. When used as a control for nucleic acid tests, the same protocols as those used to amplify clinical specimens should be employed.
More Information
Candida auris is a biosafety level 2 microorganism and must be used within Biological Safety Level 2 facility or cabinet. Please consult your institution’s regulations regarding the use of this organism. For a detailed discussion on biological safety see the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), published by the CDC.
