The Sensititre System Plate Guide outlines Thermo Scientific’s scalable antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) solutions designed to enhance lab efficiency, accuracy, and antimicrobial stewardship. This comprehensive guide details customizable and standard minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) plates for human, veterinary, and surveillance testing, supporting over 300 antimicrobials. The guide emphasizes automation options like the Thermo Scientific™ Sensititire™ ARIS HiQ™ System and the Thermo Scientific™ Sensititire™ Vizion™ Digital MIC Viewing System, which streamline workflows and reduce manual errors.

Integrated software (SWIN) enables seamless data management and LIS connectivity. Quality control protocols and service support ensure compliance and reliability. This guide is essential for lab managers seeking to optimize AST operations, reduce turnaround times, and meet evolving clinical and regulatory demands.

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.
