Validation of Microbial Identification Systems
There are numerous different technologies available for the characterization and identification of microorganisms. Some companies choose to use the term 'characterization' when the organism is identified to genus, but not necessarily to species and use identification to mean both genus and species. Other systems use gas chromatography. Regardless of the type of system used, the general principles of validation for these systems are consistent. The specific technology employed may require that additional tests be performed. This booklet discusses the general principles for validating these systems and provides examples of protocols for one type of available technology.
