Rapid Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST)
Description:
-
POC clinical diagnostics
-
AST, UTIs, etc.
-
-
Drug development
-
Single cell detection for studying response to antibiotics and antibiotic resistance evolution
-
-
Bacteria detection in non-medical applications
-
Rapid bacterial detection in free solution (results in ~60 minutes with 90% accuracy)
-
Works directly with raw clinical samples at clinically relevant bacterial concentrations (i.e. 103-104 CFU/mL – tenfold less than the threshold for most samples)
-
Enables single cell detection capability
-
Studying cell heterogeneity response to antibiotics and antibiotic resistance evolution
-
Real-time tracking of individual cell growth and division without need for DNA primers, reagents or long incubation periods
-
Eliminates microfluidics and pumps/valves – provides a simpler and more reliable measurement
-
Accepts a wider dynamic range of bacterial loads, simplifying the sample preparation process while providing robust results
