As part of its continued commitment to innovations in blood
culture testing, bioMérieux offers the only plastic blood
culture
bottles in the world. BacT/ALERT plastic bottles help remove the
likelihood of a sharps exposure and a bloodborne pathogens
hazard from the workplace. The bottles are designed to help
laboratories better adhere to the
U.S.
Department
of
Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogens
Standard and other regulatory mandates.
These gas-impermeable plastic bottles improve safety and do not interfere with
organism growth or metabolism. They offer the same proven media
formulations for equivalent recovery to BacT/ALERT media in conventional
glass bottles, but they are 30% lighter. BacT/ALERT plastic bottles are up to 50% lighter than other brands in glass bottles,
thus significantly reducing waste disposal costs.
