The hazard

Upon installation of BD Kiestra" InoqulA+" and BeA version 5.1 and 5.1.1 as part of the Icefall A platform, plate information was not visible in Synapsys" after processing has occurred. This could possibly lead to a delayed diagnosis and/or treatment or need for specimen recollection streaking plated media, and inoculating tubes and slides. In Semi-Automated (SA) mode, plates are automatically selected, barcoded, streaked in a pre-configured pattern while the user manually inoculates plates, tubes, and slides. An optional biosafety cabinet on the SA module provides personnel, product, and environmental protection. The InoqulA+" solution is indicated for use in the clinical laboratory.
