Defending against the rising threat of drug-resistant fungal sepsis
23 Sept 2025Understanding the complexity of fungal sepsis caused by Candida species may seem daunting. Which methods are effective in fighting elusive strains? Which tools are best at identifying them? What can those results do to help clinicians make better decisions? These are complex questions, but one thing is certain: Appropriate laboratory diagnostics like antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) and emerging research can help turn the tide in the fight against fungal sepsis.
Discover how Thermo Fisher Scientific gives laboratories and physicians the data they need to make critical decisions in cases of resistant fungal sepsis. Explore how your clinical laboratory can be part of the solution with advanced tools and resources.

Clinical MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.
