MRSA is one of the HAIs (Hospital Acquired Infections)s covered by Microbiologics in the Swab Format of Helix Elite™

​These are the products for the QC of swab-based MRSA screening.

Inactivated Helix Elite™ in Swab Format
  • Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Inactivated Swab - Catalog HE0053NS
  • Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) Inactivated Swab - Catalog HE0054NS
  • Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus epidermidis (MSSE) Inactivated Swab - Catalog HE0055NS

​As you will see from the video, the control swabs are used in the same way as specimen swabs.
When it comes to detecting and identifying healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), there is no room for error. Microbiologics offers simple, reliable controls for HAI testing in clinical laboratories to ensure procedures and materials are working properly.

Designed to be handled like true patient samples. 
​
These tests are QC organisms lyophilized onto a swab to mimic the processing of a patient sample. 

  • Multiple platform compatibility 
  • Lyophilization allows for easy storage, reduces transport costs, and ensures stability ensures stability 
  • IVD controls and panels provide the highest levels of assurance 
  • Third-party controls deliver independent assessments of assay performance 
  • IVD controls and panels providing assurance in your results
  • Third-party controls delivering an independent assessment of assay performance

​Each kit includes six individually packaged swabs containing the test organism and a Certificate of Analysis.   
​These products can be transported and stored at ambient temperature.
