Conditions & Notices
- The sample collection technique is of utmost importance: the sample must be collected in a sterile, endotoxin-free (special) container from the point of use (dialysis machine connection point), taking into account complete sterilization to prevent external contamination.
- The sample should be tested as soon as possible (usually within 30 minutes) or stored properly if testing is delayed, because the endotoxin may adhere to the vessel walls.
- The examination is carried out routinely on a periodic basis (monthly or quarterly) according to the unit's protocol and local regulations.
