Reminder on the use of Own Site Inoculum for RBP testing

For operators who have been given permission to use their own site inoculum for RBP testing following the receipt of invalid results due to inoculum inhibition:

Following discussion at the recent BCS Operators’ Forum meeting, we would like to clarify that REAL should be contacted before you plan to send further samples for RBP testing in order to obtain a new code and permission to use your own inoculum each time you wish to adopt this approach (for parallel RBP testing and/or own inoculum only RBP testing).

A new code will be issued for each test. The procedures for operators experiencing this issue can be found here.

REAL should be contacted using info@realschemes.org.uk.
