An investigation has determined the cause of the false negative TRE reactions is that a small percentage of VITEK 2 GN cards from this lot are missing media in the TRE well.

medio
Explanation:
TRE media refers to a type of culture media, Trehalose, used to identify certain bacteria. Therefore "media" would be translated as "medio de cultivo", shortened to "medio".
I would translate your sentence as follows:
Un estudio ha determinado que la causa de los falsos negativos en las reacciones TRE es que, en una pequeña proporción de las tarjetas VITEK 2 GN de este lote, el pocillo de trehalosa no tiene suficiente medio de cultivo.

Espero que te ayude.
