9 STABILITY TESTING Participants of the GeneXpert Stakeholders meeting request more data related to shipment at high or low temperatures and different humidity levels. Information in package insert of CGXMTB/RIF-50 kit : Store the Xpert MTB/RIF cartridges and reagents at 2 to 28 C. The cartridges are stable up to 2 weeks at 2 to 48 C after opening the pouch Additional information received from CEPHEID on shipping study in both summer and winter conditions to define shelf life based on real time data. Each protocol is based on a total of 7 days, with several variations of temperature to simulate shipments, and with the 5 last days at 50 C (summer protocol ) or at minus 18 C (winter protocol). The tests which have been following these shipping simulations, are then tested at T0, then stored at 5 or 25 or 35 C, (simulating customer storage) and then tested after 3, 12, 24,36 months. 9
