“In the first year we had the MicroScan [system], we saved over
$70,000 in send-out costs alone because the MicroScan [system]
could identify isolates that our previous system could not.”

“The MicroScan unit is an overnight
testing system that is a true growth/
no growth system, which gives you
the most accurate results. It offers
the flexibility of either a full
MicroScan MIC panel or combination
identification and susceptibility
panel. The MicroScan [system] has
been very consistent and reliable,
attested by the fact that we have 10
of them.”

- 3. 3 MicroScan WalkAway systems Accuracy for better patient outcomes ACCURACY MATTERS Preventing the spread of antibiotic-resistant (AMR) bacteria within hospitals and communities requires correct identification of AMR pathogens as quickly as possible. MicroScan microbiology systems detect emerging resistance as it occurs, providing accurate and timely results without reliance on historical data. Get answers right the first time: › Accurate drug-bug performance The fewest clinically significant drug-bug limitations of any automated ID/AST system result in fewer repeat and confirmatory tests1 › Powerful reporting MIC and susceptibility results that correlate with classical broth microdilution and disk diffusion in the most trusted way2,3 › Real-time alerts LabPro AlertEX automates detection of atypical results for quick recognition and reporting Backed by more than 35 years of ID/AST testing experience, MicroScan microbiology systems improve workflow by minimizing the need for confirmatory retesting and providing accurate, first-time results for laboratories of every size.
