Sensitive testing system enables rapid, reliable detection of resistance in bacteria – News-Medical.net
Researchers from the University of Basel have developed a sensitive testing system that allows the rapid and reliable detection of resistance in bacteria.
Researchers from the University of Basel have developed a sensitive testing system that allows the rapid and reliable detection of resistance in bacteria. The system is based on tiny, functionalized cantilevers that bend due to binding of sample material. In the analyses, the system was able to detect resistance in a sample quantity equivalent to 1-10 bacteria.
Bacteria that are no longer susceptible to various antibiotics pose a significant threat to our health. In the event of a bacterial infection,…
