QuickMIC®: Pioneering ultra-rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing
QuickMIC Instrument
The QuickMIC instrument can analyse one positive blood culture sample per run, providing precise MIC values in 2–4 hours. The system’s unique technology utilises microfluidics and live imaging to monitor bacterial growth across a linear antibiotic gradient. The small, modular instruments can be stacked to increase testing capacity as needed.
QuickMIC
Gram-negative Panels
The QuickMIC Panel test one blood culture sample against multiple antibiotics. Each pre-filled panel contains twelve antibiotics tailored for common sepsis-causing Gram-negative bacteria.
QuickMIC GN
QuickMIC GN provides rapid susceptibility testing across a broad panel of antibiotics for common Gram-negative pathogens, including E. coli, Klebsiella spp., P. aeruginosa, E. cloacae, A. baumannii, Proteus spp., Citrobacter spp. and S. marcescens.
QuickMIC GN02
QuickMIC GN02 broadens Gram-negative antibiotic coverage for highly resistant pathogens, introducing four antibiotics to the panel, including cefiderocol, within the established QuickMIC workflow.
QuickMIC Analyst
Our software analyses bacterial microcolonies to calculate growth rates and determine MIC values.
- A real-time overview of the run allows users to visually monitor growth in chambers
- Results for each antibiotic are presented independently throughout the run, as soon as they become available
- Bacteria ID can be added at any time during of after the run to display S, I, R categories
- QuickMIC Analyst supports up to 12 connected instruments at once
The QuickMIC Workflow
Simply load the cassette with the provided growth medium and with your gel-embedded sample. Insert into an available instrument, click Start Run and you’re all set.
