BIOMIC Vision AST System Released in UK
The BIOMIC Vision AST-ID System will enhance the productivity and reduce material costs and labour time for your microbiology laboratory.
(PRWEB) March 24, 2005 -- The BIOMIC Vision AST System can be utilised both
as a primary and back-up/complimentary AST-ID system in microbiology labs. It
provides CLSI (NCCLS) and BSAC standard method antibiotic disk-test results of
the broadest range of drugs for yeast and bacteria, many contraindicated in
other systems. In rapid-batch entry mode, up to 6 plates per minute are read by
the BIOMIC after it automatically interprets the correct drug-panel based on
organism and/or LIMS-work list.
The BIOMIC Vision AST System will
enhance the productivity and reduce material costs and labour time for your
laboratory. Test and QC results are automatically checked by an advanced Expert
system based on CLSI or BSAC guidelines.
BIOMIC contains IDTree
software, based on CLSI-M35 (Rapid Final Identification of Bacteria and Yeast)
and provides rapid simple procedures to identify 80-90% of isolates in minutes.
IDTree contains explanations, test result photos and procedure flow schemes.
BIOMIC takes advantage of the flexibility and low cost CLSI or BSAC disk
test method and materials, and eliminates the labour to read, interpret and
record results. BIOMIC’s Windows-based system is intuitive, reliable and is used
in over 450 laboratories in 48 countries Worldwide.
