Host response assay to distinguish bacterial and viral infections

This brochure introduces MeMed BV^®, a host response assay designed to differentiate between bacterial and viral infections using a simple blood test. The assay integrates three immune protein biomarkers into a computational score, enabling clinicians to make more informed treatment decisions and reduce inappropriate antibiotic use. Validated across more than 20,000 patients, the test demonstrates high diagnostic accuracy and supports timely clinical decision-making. Available on Beckman Coulter immunoassay platforms, MeMed BV delivers rapid results within routine laboratory workflows, helping address key challenges in infectious disease diagnosis and antibiotic stewardship.
