Abstract:
:At the Islet Isolation Laboratory of the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service, manual sterility testing data show that contamination rates are 57.7% for pancreas transport fluid, 4.3% for postpurification islet samples, and 0% for pretransplant islet samples. This pilot study presents the BacT/Alert System as an alternative to manual testing to provide more rapid and sensitive sterility results for islet cell products.
