Organism identification is also performed and a relative priority ranking of agents is completed for each sample plate. Bulk swab samples were obtained by swabbing the selected surface area. The plated samples were incubated at room temperature for at least three to seven days. Microbial growth obtained from the collected swab sample was identified and evaluated qualitatively or semi-quantitatively. The slide is examined under a light microscope.
Any significant particle observed is recorded.
All biological sample collection media was properly prepared. Appropriate quality control considerations were followed and documented. All collected samples were transported to the laboratory and were appropriately processed upon receipt. All cultures were incubated for 7 to 10 days for final observation and compilation of the data. Room 113 was observed to be a separate, free-standing building.
