Project

Optimization of a microfluidic strip and device through design and engineering of the diagnosis rate of the minimum inhibitory concentrations (mi) of antibiotics (MIC-STRIP).

Early availability of information on bacterial pathogens and their antimicrobial susceptibility is of key importance for the management of infectious disease patients. MIC-STRIP is a novel phenotypic approach that achieves readout of the antibiotic susceptibility profile of a bacterial infection within 4 hours, moving the time to modify antibiotic treatment from the next day to within the same day.
