H.6 investigation summary: during manufacturing of material 221353, media is formulated and sent through a high temperature short time sterilizer to remove bioburden.The petri dishes are subjected to uv radiation to decrease bioburden.The petri dishes are filled in a positive pressure hepa filtered environment.The filled plates are cooled and immediately wrapped into sleeves to decrease the introduction of microbes.Sleeves are then packaged into cartons and then transferred to a refrigerated truck (2 to 8 degrees c) for shipment to the distributor.Bd distributors are provided with the storage guidelines for the shipping and handling of bd media of 2 to 8 degrees c in a dark place.The release testing that is performed on this product does include physical attribute testing.A sample of plates are incubated at 25 degrees c and at 35 degrees c for approximately 72 hours.They are tested for physical attributes prior to release to ensure that they conform to product specifications.One photo was received for investigation of this complaint.The photo shows the bottom of a medium red agar plate with no plate print.No bd product labels are in the photo for batch verification.No return samples were received, and no batch number was provided for investigation.Retention samples cannot be evaluated without a specific batch number.Trending was performed on the appropriate quality databases and no trends for missing plate print were found in the last 12 months.Bd will continue to trend for this issue.This complaint cannot be confirmed.
