Mass spec is the ultimate in identification
Application Area: Identify bacterial organisms
"Brukers Mass Spec analyzers are the ultimate machines for identification. I can identify yeast, fungus, anaerobes, and mycobacterium. What takes normally 24-72 hours, now can be identified in less than 20 minutes from an isolated colony. The ease of use, little maintenance, and service dial-in capabilities is just icing on the cake. Antimicrobial stewards love this machine as it aides in their choice of treatment much more effectively than anything in the past."
The Bruker MALDI Biotyper® System uses MALDI-TOF technology which is highly accurate and applicable to a wide range of microorganisms.
This cost-effective system is much faster than traditional methods and provides the ideal complement to the MicroScan WalkAway plus System.
