Why this procedure was chosen
The BD Bactec FX is a closed system, it works exclusively with the BD blood culture bottles and, as such, to facilitate this tendered solution, across all sites, it stands that these must be consistently used. There is not a viable or compatible alternative. The risks to not changing the Biomeriux bottles to BD bottles means that the newly installed BDFX analysers will not work on the current bottles.
