Affinity Biosensors develops and manufactures award-winning analytical instruments for use in research, manufacturing, and life sciences. Instruments are based on the Company’s exclusive Resonant Mass Measurement (RMM) technology. The sensor is a MEMS-fabricated sensor, enabling the measurement of mass in fluid, with femtogram resolution. The LifeScale instrument is the current state-of-the-art system to exploit Resonant Mass Measurement technology leading to new, unique and rapid techniques for the measurement and observation of microbe growth and response. RAPID and PRECISE COUNTS and MASS MEASUREMENT OF INDIVIDUAL MICROBES LOW SAMPLE VOLUME AND CONCENTRATIONS SIMPLE SAMPLE PREPARATION QUANTITATIVE RESULTS SIMPLE TOUCH-SCREEN SOFTWARE RAPID RESULTS LifeScale AST A well-plate format for rapid (3-3.5 hours) antibiotic susceptibility testing of Gram-negative rods. The semi-automated platform offers high throughput, and excellent statistics. The LifeScale system gives the fastest possible assessment of microbial growth. Performance in antibiotic susceptibility testing has been validated on clinically derived organisms direct from positive blood culture using a custom antibiotic panel. The LifeScale-AST is CE Marked (IVDD 98/79/EC).
