- Flow cytometric antimicrobial susceptibility test for gram-negative bacilli directly from positives urinesPublication . Oliveira, Joana Santos; Santos, Rita Teixeira; Oliveira, Sofia Costa de; Dias, Ana Silva; Oliveira, Inês Martins; Rodrigues, Acácio G.; Vaz, Cidália PinaUrinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most frequent infections in both hospitalized and community patients. These infections may provoke serious complications especially in children, pregnant human and elderly. The rate of recurrent UTIs is high and the increasing number of resistant bacteria is intensified by incorrect or excessive use of antimicrobial drugs. Consequently, rapid antimicrobial susceptibility tests are urgent. FASTinov® kits allow the determination of antimicrobial susceptibility profile directly from biological products (time-to-result, TTR, 2h). In this work, we evaluated the performance of FASTinov® gramneg kit for AST on gram-negative bacilli directly from urine.
