Procedure rationale• Compatibility with existing technology at APHA Weybridge laboratory as both may be used in conjunction to deliver equivalent services at different sites. There needs to be compatibility with data comparison, staff training, exchange of data, quality drivers and existing SOPs.
• Extensive validation of the Bruker platform following c10 years of usage by APHA;
• Continuity of delivery of UKAS accredited testing accredited to the Bruker platform;
• Compatibility with machines in use in diagnostic partners, who are implementing the same platform in their diagnostic bacteriology laboratories to deliver equivalent services to APHA. This will enable APHA to be able to compare performance and experience on same machine and potentially exchange trace files to improve quality of the database for veterinary bacteria and thus improve veterinary diagnostics. At the moment the main market for MALDI-TOF, and thus driver of database is clinical microbiology, so ability to work with a partner to improve veterinary performance is important strategically. |
