Culture Derivative
Culture derivatives are the specimen remnants after a culture is terminated. Creating and terminating cultures is done in LDMS Assays. Since LDMS is aliquot-based, you can't do certain things with a culture itself (such assigning a storage location). To do these things, you'll need to create an aliquot (or aliquots) derived from the culture.
Logging a culture derivative
-
Locate the aliquot in LDMS Specimen Management
that was used to create the culture. -
Click the
button.Note:If you receive a message that no cultures were found, it means that you have not yet created the culture from this specimen in LDMS Assays.
-
Select the culture from the top from which you will be creating an aliquot(s).
-
Complete the aliquot information (# of Aliqots, Vol, etc) as appropriate.
-
Click the
button to create the aliquots. -
You will be prompted as to whether you would like to specify a specimen ID manually (which will be applied to all of the aliquots you are creating).
