1 Quality Control Strains Commercial firms specify ATCC strains as controls for rapid identification, minimum inhibitory concentration of antibiotics and antibiotic susceptibility panels. Species and strains specified or recommended for use are listed in this brochure. Repeated subculturing can be detrimental to quality control strains. Every passage carries the potential for contamination, genetic drift and mutation, taking your culture farther and farther from the original. Most professional organizations that draft standards require that cultures not be used beyond five passages from the original ATCC strain. ATCC defines the first passage to be the broth or agar culture prepared from the vial supplied by ATCC. Each subsequent transfer to a new broth or agar is counted as an additional passage. Your Discoveries Begin With Us. Come to the source for ATCC Genuine Cultures for your laboratory quality control protocols. ATCC Genuine Cultures are available directly from ATCC or ATCC authorized distributors.
