Tailored antimicrobial therapy in critically ill patients

Thermo Fisher Scientific
3 Jul 2025

In hospitals around the world, there is an escalating threat of multidrug-resistant bacteria with it being predicted that by 2050, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), including multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), could lead to more deaths globally than cancer.

Discover how the Bologna University Hospital and Professor Federico Pea have acknowledge this challenge and have developed a program to tailor antibiotic therapy based on accurate Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) values, real-time therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) data, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) parameters.

Clinical MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.
