Ludwig, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Yes, we can... improve the lives of people the world over. On a daily basis, 27,000 BD associates around the globe are helping battle some of the most entrenched diseases and challenging healthcare problems. At BD, we believe the people of one company can make a difference. We are confident that our unwavering commitment - together with the innovative solutions, knowledge and expertise that are the foundation of our Company - will enable us to prevail as we strive for a healthier world. BD Diagnostics - Diagnostic Systems continues to be a leader in microbiology and infectious disease diagnostics. Its focus on growth media - for both the clinical and industrial market segments - is the foundation of strong customer relationships and an entry point for instrument platforms. For example, BD BACTEC TM Blood Culturing Systems are a critical tool for microbiologists seeking clinically relevant answers for patients with life-threatening infections. The 2006 acquisition of GeneOhm Sciences provides BD with additional molecular testing capability for the detection of bacterial organisms, especially those causing HAIs. This newly acquired capability, coupled with the BD ProbeTec TM ET System / BD Viper TM System, gives BD a growing position in molecular diagnostics. Looking forward, Diagnostic Systems will leverage its unique instrument product portfolio and engineering capabilities to provide a range of systems to rapidly diagnose infectious disease. Our European Mission Our guiding mission is to continuously support and lead success in our customers daily practices. Our key goal is to provide solutions which help our clinical and industrial clients to improve their work and information processes.

BD BACTEC MGIT 960 Mycobacterial Detection System The new Gold Standard in Mycobacteria Testing The BD BACTEC MGIT 960 System is the latest generation in a proven line of instruments for mycobacteria testing. It builds on the legacy of the BD BACTEC 460TB System, the world s first instrumented system for mycobacteria testing, and still a benchmark of quality and reliability. Over the years, BD BACTEC MGIT 960 has taken over the role of being the gold standard in instrumented mycobacteria testing, with the added advantage of being fully automated and nonradiometric. BD BACTEC MGIT 960 Instrument Installations: As of October 2007, 824 BD BACTEC MGIT 960 were placed in Western/Eastern Europe, Middle East, and Africa. BD is particularly proud that the following National TB Reference Laboratories are relying on BD BACTEC MGIT 960 in the fight against TB: Western Europe: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom Eastern Europe: Albania, Belarus, Bosnia Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia Middle East: Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Lybia, Oman, U.A.E. Africa: Angola, Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Swaziland, Uganda, Zambia

BD BACTEC MGIT 960 DST Mycobacterial Detection System Leading the fight against MDR and XDR TB WHO Liquid Culture Announcement, October 2007 WHO recommends the use of liquid cultures and rapid species identification to address the needs for culture and drug susceptibility testing (DST), integrated in a country specific comprehensive plan for laboratory capacity strengthening. The WHO liquid culture recommendation is the result of the FIND/BD Demonstration Projects. BD is proud to be a preferred partner of FIND in the fight against TB. BD EpiCenter TB-eXiST BD has developed a new set-up in its EpiCenter Data Management system. This set-up, referred to as TBeXiST (extended individual susceptibility testing), will significantly facilitate the testing and reporting of existing and potentially new 2nd-line drug results with the BD BACTEC MGIT 960. By responding and reacting rapidly to an emerging situation, BD hopes to provide a significant contribution to the fight against MDR- and XDR-TB. http://www.who.int/tb/dots/laboratory/policy/en/index3.html

Ferric Chloride Reagent Droppers contain 0.5 ml of 10 % ferric chloride in aqueous solution. Flagella Flagella Stain Droppers are used for demonstrating bacterial flagella and their rrangement on the cell. Due to their narrow diameter, bacterial flagella cannot be seen with the light microscope without the use of special stains. The presence of bacterial flagella, flagellum length, shape, curvature, number per cell and arrangement on the cell are useful in the identification of motile bacteria. The Flagella Stain is based on the tannic acid-crystal violet formula first described by Ryu and later by Kodaka, Armfield, Lombard and Dowell. The presence of flagella is especially useful in the identification of nonfermentative, gram-negative bacilli and anaerobic bacteria. Contains 0.6 % Crystal Violet in Ethanol, 2.0 % Tannic Acid, 2.5 % Phenol and 5.7 % Aluminum Potassium Sulfate. India Ink India Ink Reagent Droppers are used to enhance the microscopic detection of Cryptococcus spp. in wet preparations. India ink facilitates the visualization of cryptococcal polysaccharide capsules. The capsular material of cryptococci displaces the colloidal carbon particles of the ink so that the capsule appears as a clear halo around the microorganisms against a black background. India Ink Reagent Droppers may be used to stain pus, exudate, tissue, sputum and sediment of centrifuged urine and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) specimens. The India ink smear is particularly useful for CSF specimens because Cryptococcus neoformans is the most common cause of fungal central nervous system (CNS) infections throughout the world. The appearance of encapsulated yeast forms in an India ink smear from CSF is diagnostic for cryptococcal meningitis. Contains 0.5 ml of an aqueous suspension of India ink with suspending agent and preservative. Indole Indole Reagent Droppers (modified Kovacs' reagent) are used in determining the ability of bacteria to produce indole by the deamination of tryptophan.

Identification & Susceptibility Testing Identification systems are utilized to obtain the identification (genus and species) of an organism. These systems contain fluorogenic and chromogenic substrates. When the organism comes into contact with the substrates, the organism either reacts with the substrate (positive reaction) or there is no reaction (negative reaction). When the positive and negative reactions are combined, the identification of the organism is determined. Susceptibility systems are utilized to determine what antimicrobics will be most effective in treating an organism. The organism is tested against various concentrations of antimicrobics, determining the organism s resistance (ineffective) or susceptibility (effective) to the antimicrobics. The identification and susceptibility of an organism is information that the physician requires from the laboratory, which is used when determining patient treatment.

Identification & Susceptibility Testing BD Phoenix Automated Identification & Susceptibility Testing BD Phoenix Instrument & Accessories 448100 1 BD Phoenix 100 - Instrument The BD Phoenix Automated Microbiology System is designed for the rapid Identification (ID) and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) of clinically significant human bacterial pathogens. The instrument holds up to 100 panels (ID only, AST only, combined ID/AST, or a mixture), thus being capable of performing 200 simultaneous tests with the combined ID/AST panels. Identification is based on colorimetric and fluorescence readings without the need for supplemental tests or reagent addition. The AST is based on a dual indicator system (redox and turbidity readings) for optimal performance. Panel readings are taken by the BD Phoenix instrument every 20 minutes and on average, provide the final interpretation of ID results in less than 3 hours and of AST results in approximately 8 hours. Over 160 Gram-negative organisms and over 145 Gram-positive organisms are in the BD Phoenix database. The BD Phoenix supports CLSI (formerly NCCLS), SFM, DIN, and BSAC based rules as well as customizable breakpoints. An integrated customizable expert system (BDXpert System) is used for result validation. The BD Phoenix System features only one moving part, easy-to-use icon driven software, rapid reporting of preliminary results, specimen barcoding, direct LIS connection and minimal user maintenance. The System can be connected to the BD EpiCenter Data Management System which provides the laboratory with workflow management, patient demographic storage, advanced query and custom reporting, and infection control and epidemiology analysis. 448040 1 BD Phoenix - Starter Kit The BD Phoenix Starter Kit includes: 5 inoculation stations, 2 panel caddies, 1 fixed volume pipette, 960 pipette tips, 1 temperature panel, 4 spare air filters, 1 external bar code scanner, 3 power cords and 1 quick reference guide. 448099 1 448025 1 441132 1 448030 5 448020 2 BD Phoenix 100 - Table BD Phoenix - 25 μl Hamilton-Pipette The BD Phoenix 25 μl Hamilton-Pipette is used for the transfer of bacterial suspensions from the inoculated ID Broth tubes to the AST broth tubes in the 0.5 McFarland Mode.

The sodium citrate, when converted to citric acid, holds certain inorganic cations in solution. Glycerol is an abundant source of carbon and energy. Oleic acid, as well as other long chain fatty acids, can be utilized by tubercle bacilli and plays an important role in the metabolism of mycobacteria. Catalase destroys toxic peroxides that may be present in the medium. The primary effect of albumin is that of protection of the tubercle bacilli against toxic agents, therefore enhancing their recovery by primary isolation. Partial inhibition of bacteria is achieved by the presence of the malachite green dye.
