Automated methods in microbiology: II. Identification and susceptibility testing
Abstract:
This paper explores in detail three automated systems for microbial identification and susceptibility testing: Autobac, MS-2, and the AutoMicrobic System (AMS). The systems' workings and their capabilities are described. A similar approach is taken with four automated microtiter systems: Sensititre, Sceptor, Micro-Coder II, and Micro Scan. Two new systems are described: the API UniScept System, and the COBAS (which is not yet on the market).
