A customer in the united states notified biom? Rieux of a misidentification of cap survey strain candida tropicalis in association with the vitek? 2 yeast (yst) identification (id) test kit. The vitek 2 yst id card identified the strain to candida parapsilosis. Following receipt of the cap answer, the customer retested the original cap strain via yst id card; obtained results of candida lusitaniae and candida haemulonii. Testing of a second specimen from cap provided an organism identification to the expected result of candida tropicalis. There is no indication or report from the laboratory that the discrepant result led to any adverse event related to any person's state of health, as there is no patient associated with the cap survey strain, biom? Rieux requested strain submittal from the customer. A biom? Rieux internal investigation has been initiated.
