Direct MIC Testing to Support Your Laboratory’s Antimicrobial Stewardship The MicroScan portfolio of ID/AST panels supports unique institutional and geographic needs with a broad menu of antibiotic configurations and choice of inoculum preparation methods. With continued emergence of antimicrobial resistance, our direct MIC testing methodology provides confidence for detecting subtle changes in susceptibility results. Support a variety of formulary needs with current antimicrobials and dilutions Test both ID and AST in a single combo panel to optimize workflow Select MIC-only panel formats to complement MALDI-TOF ID* testing protocols Use ID-only panels for targeted testing needs Use either Prompt† or turbidity inoculation method for workflow flexibility Rely on visual confirmation of biochemical and susceptibility results for added confidence in unusual results Get integrated ESβL confirmation on most Gram-negative panels Accurately Detect Antibiotic Resistance with New MicroScan Panels As the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant organisms continues to increase, the value of accurate MIC testing has become more important than ever. A new MicroScan panel for multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) reduces the need for offline testing, improves laboratory workflow and provides accurate results to treat patients faster. Reduce offline testing, using two new antibiotics now available on an automated system Ceftazidime/avibactam for treatment of Pseudomonas (P.) aeruginosa, extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESβLs), Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases,
