Identifying the cause of meningitis based on clinical presentation alone can be challenging. Getting fast, pathogen-specific answers may help save lives and guide appropriate therapy.
The BIOFIRE® ME Panel targets 14 of the most common bacterial, viral, and fungal causes of central nervous system infections. It takes just one small sample of 0.2 mL of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and about an hour to deliver accurate results.
Results available in about 1 hour.
Available for use on the BIOFIRE® FILMARRAY® TORCH System.
