Developing a point-of-care, hand-held diagnostic device to screen a fluid sample for specific pathogenic bacteria.
It identifies the bacteria if it can or counts the bacteria and then does an antibiotic sensitivity test on them within an hour.
Its initial application will be for urinary tract infections.
The device contains samples of antibiotics and electronic sensors within the device monitor the growth of bacteria from a sample under the influence of those antibiotics.
The device then sends a list of recommended antibiotics to a healthcare worker’s email or smartphone.
The technology was developed at Texas A&M University.
