Innovative and rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2020
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to human health worldwide, and the rapid detection and quantification of resistance, combined with antimicrobial stewardship, are key interventions to combat the spread and emergence of AMR. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) systems are the collective set of diagnostic processes that facilitate ...

Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility tests for sepsis; the road ahead

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 2019
Current methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) are too slow to affect initial treatment decisions in the early stages of sepsis, when the prescriber is most concerned to select effective therapy immediately, rather than finding out what will not work 1 or 2 days later.

Recent advances in rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems

Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics, 2021
Until recently antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) methods based on the demonstration of phenotypic susceptibility in 16-24 h remained largely unchanged.Advances in rapid phenotypic and molecular-based AST systems.AST has changed over the past decade, with many rapid phenotypic and molecular methods developed to demonstrate phenotypic or ...

Combinatorial screening SlipChip for rapid phenotypic antimicrobial susceptibility testing

Lab on a Chip, 2022
A combinatorial-screening SlipChip based on a self-partitioning mechanism performs high-throughput phenotypic AST with a panel of antibiotics and antibiotic combinations in three hours by monitoring the phenotypic profile of bacterial growth.

Rapid Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Based on a Bio-Inspired Chemiluminescence Sensor

Analytical Chemistry, 2022
Indiscriminate usage of antibiotics has caused accelerating growth and global expansion of antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) for guiding antibiotic prescription and preventing the spread of antimicrobial resistance is in urgent need.

Evaluation of a bioluminescence assay for rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing of mycobacteria

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1985
The antimicrobial susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and 17 clinical isolates of the same species was determined using a bioluminescence assay to measure adenosine triphosphate (ATP) produced by bacteria in the broth dilution test performed in Dubos-Tween-albumin broth.

Rapid susceptibility testing on urine for antimicrobial stewardship in general practice

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy
Abstract Objective Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) can improve antimicrobial management and patient outcome. Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common reasons for antimicrobial prescription in general practice.

Blood culture-free ultra-rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing

Nature
Treatment assessment and patient outcome for sepsis depend predominantly on the timely administration of appropriate antibiotics1-3. However, the clinical protocols used to stratify and select patient-specific optimal therapy are extremely slow4. In particular, the major hurdle in performing rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) remains in ...
