Products
Phenotypic AST kit for direct testing of positive blood cultures (AST and ID/AST configurations)
A consumable kit intended for direct phenotypic antimicrobial susceptibility testing from positive blood culture samples; available in AST-only and combined ID/AST configurations and designed for use with automated testing platforms.
Automated sample-preparation platform for direct mass-spectrometry identification
An automated instrument workflow that prepares positive blood culture samples for direct identification by mass-spectrometry methods by removing interfering material and presenting clean analyte for ID.
Holographic imaging–based rapid AST system
A rapid AST platform that uses holographic or advanced optical imaging to assess bacterial growth/response and report susceptibility results and confirmatory resistance phenotypes (e.g., ESBL) in markedly reduced timeframes.
