Microbial ID/AST System

Testing Principle

Microbial Identification (ID): Colorimetry to analyze bacterial physiological and 

biochemical reactions
Antibiotic susceptibility test (AST): Broth dilution testing (Turbidimetry) to get

 MIC of antibiotics.

Types Of Reagent Plate

Comprehensive range of reagent plate available: Enterobacteriaceae, 

non-fermenting bacteria, Staphylococci, Streptococci, yeast-like fungi,etc.
3 kinds for ID plate. AST plate, ID/AST Combo plate.

ID

Capable of identifying Enterobacteriaceae, non-fermenting bacteria,

 Staphylococci, Streptococci, yeast-like fungi,etc.

AST

Features susceptibility test panels for Enterobacteriaceae, 

non-fermenting bacteria, Staphylococci, Streptococc, etc. 

containing 24–28 antibiotics per test. 

Can detect and report resistance phenotypes or mechanisms such as 

ESBL, MRSA, VRE, carbapenem resistance, erythromycin-inducible 

clindamycin resistance, high-level gentamicin resistance, and 

high-level streptomycin resistance.
Includes AST plate for Yeast-like fungi containing 7 antifungal agents,

 such as caspofungin, micafungin, and amphotericin B.

Reagent Plate Design And Preparation

Identification and Antibiotic susceptibility test composite plate, Identification 

plate or Antibiotic susceptibility test can be optional.

Interpretation

Supports both automated interpretation and manual interpretation,

 facilitating flexible result reporting.

Detection Time

Bacterial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing 

completed within 18–24 hours.

Detection Speed

50–60 specimens/hour

Bacterial Strain Library

Covers over 750 bacterial species, fully encompassing clinically common strains

Expert System

Equipped with an open three-tier expert system that follows standards such as 

CLSI and EUCAST, providing recommendations and allowing modifications.

Robust expert analysis systems for both identification and susceptibility testing. 

The system features extensive rules, automatically reviewing and correcting 

identification results, and automatically flagging information on multidrug-resistant 

strains, enabling full human-machine interaction.

Drug Susceptibility

Antibiotic selection follows the CLSI M100 standard for antimicrobial susceptibility testing.
Each antibiotic is tested at 2–8 concentration gradients.
Support EUCAST standard as well.
Antibiotics and gradient levels can be freely combined and customized.

Report Format

Results reported according to CLSI standards, categorized into five groups (A, B, C, U, O), 

with MIC values provided. Reporting formats can also be freely selected.
Under EUCAST mode, can be reported under EUCAST standard.

Data Management

Unlimited data storage capacity with powerful query and statistical analysis functions, 

users can define custom query and analysis criteria.

Lis

Operation software with interfaces compatible with LIS and HIS systems.

Whonet

Data can be exported for WHONET statistical analysis and uploaded to the 

CARSS network for antimicrobial resistance data reporting.

Statistics in Epidemiology

Including reports on bacterial distribution, detection rates, susceptibility rates, 

and departmental workload, with data exportable to Excel for further analysis.

Infection Control Module

Includes an infection control module, allowing input of infection control-related

 microbiological reports such as hand hygiene, air cultures, and surface cultures. 

Users can set whether these reports are transmitted to the LIS system.

Built-In PC
