The MIC-2000 96-channel dispenser was evaluated for accuracy and repeatability of dispensing 50-mul volumes of water. It was found to perform within the manufacturer's specifications for accuracy of +/-5%, but not within the limits for repeatability of +/-1%. Overall, instrument performance was found to be satisfactory for the antimicrobial susceptibility testing technique which has been implemented in this laboratory. A method is suggested for simple evaluation of the volumes dispensed. A variety of antibiotics may be stored in Trypticase soy broth in Microtiter plates without loss of potency for periods of at least 2 weeks at -20 degrees C and 4 months at -70 degrees C.
对MIC - 2000 96通道分配器进行了评估,以检测其分配50微升水的准确性和重复性。结果发现,其准确性在制造商规定的±5%范围内,但重复性不在±1%的限度内。总体而言,对于本实验室采用的抗菌药敏试验技术,该仪器的性能令人满意。本文提出了一种简单评估分配体积的方法。多种抗生素可储存在微量滴定板中的胰蛋白酶大豆肉汤中,在-20℃下至少可保存2周,在-70℃下可保存4个月而效力不减。
