Interpreting Results<br />
Mismatch Type What It Might Mean<br />
All + (your pattern is giving<br />
fewer positive reactions than the<br />
species you’re comparing it to)<br />
All – (your pattern is giving more<br />
positive reactions than the species<br />
you’re comparing it to)<br />
Under-inoculation<br />
A1 well is overfilled, contains clumps,<br />
or is cloudy<br />
Cells were mishandled, too old, cultured<br />
on wrong medium, suspended in wrong<br />
inoculating fluid, incubated at wrong<br />
temperature, etc.<br />
Over-inoculation (especially with<br />
enterics)<br />
A1 well is underfilled<br />
Contamination (mixed culture)<br />
TABLE 6-1. ASSESSING MISMATCHES<br />
FF database<br />
Perform a visual macroscopic and microscopic assessment of your<br />
isolate compared to the first three ID ranked species. Refer to<br />
<strong>MicroLog</strong> software photo library or mycology textbooks as references.<br />
Note: The A1 well is not used as a negative control in the FF<br />
database, therefore this well may not appear colorless.<br />
FF ID Workflow<br />
1. Read daily (at 24, 48, 72 hours) until ID is called.<br />
2. After an ID is called, verify the first three choice macro/microscopically<br />
3. If no ID, re-incubate the MicroPlate<br />
4. Read at 96 hours. If an ID is called, verify the first three choices macro/microscopically<br />
5. If no ID, launch additional investigation. Check first three choices macro/microscopically.<br />
