If you have not yet done so, this is just a reminder to provide us with your feedback by end of day this Friday, 30th January 2026. A laboratory has contacted us to address a failing in our PT scheme for Pathogenic Vibrio, distribution V073 and specimen V0187. For their own investigation they would like to understand for themselves why and what testing your laboratory did. Your laboratory failed to report the presence of V. vulnificus, we would therefore be grateful if you could respond to the following questions by email: 1. Did your laboratory observe any green colonies on TCBS after direct examination? Yes/no or not applicable 2. Did your laboratory observe any green colonies on TCBS after an enrichment process? Yes/no or not applicable 3. If yes what confirmation/identification test did you do - list and include results obtained 4. Did your laboratory do any molecular testing on any of the colonies grown in the sample? What results did you get? 5. Did any of the confirmation/identification results obtained change your results from 'Presumptive V. vulnificus' to 'no V. vulnificus' in the sample? Yes/no Many thanks Joanna Joanna Donn Distributor and Operations Manager Food and Environmental Proficiency Testing Unit UK Health Security Agency - Public Health Microbiology Email: [email protected] Tel: 0208 327 7122 <http://www.gov.uk/ukhsa> www.gov.uk/ukhsa Follow us @UKHSA Pronouns: she / her Preparing for, preventing and responding to health threats, saving lives and protecting livelihoods UKHSA Mental Health First Aider - please feel free to get in touch ************************************************************************** ***************** The information contained in the Email and any attachments is confidential and intended solely and for the attention and use of the named addressee(s).
