  • Cause
    An internal technical investigation by oxoid limited, part of thermo fisher scientific, has confirmed that certain lots of oxoid antimicrobial susceptibility testing disc cefoxitin may contain discs that have insufficient concentration of antibiotic. it has been identified that the low concentration may impact on the performance of the disc against escherichia coli and neisseria gonorrhoeae quality control organisms resulting in lower than expected zones of inhibition. performance with the staphylococcus aureus qc organism is currently within specification.Continued use of this lot could result in quality control failures, delayed results or incorrect results reporting.
