Leeds Acinetobacter Medium is a selective and differential medium intended for use as a plating technique to obtain a pure culture of Acinetobacter. The test is performed with a mixed population of microorganisms from a laboratory sample. Leeds Acinetobacter Medium is not intended for use in the identification of colonization with Acinetobacter to aid in the prevention and control of such bacteria in healthcare settings. Leeds Acinetobacter Medium is not intended to diagnose Acinetobacter infections, guide or monitor treatment for infections, or provide susceptibility results to antibiotics for which any strains of Acinetobacter are resistant. Sub-culturing is necessary for microorganism identification, susceptibility testing, and epidemiological typing.
