HB&L System: rapid determination of antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria isolated from blood cultures.

Abstract: Introduzione. L'emocoltura è un importante mezzo di indagine per rilevare microrganismi patogeni presenti nel sangue e risulta di grande utilità diagnostica. Purtroppo i classici protocolli diagnostici non permettono l'identificazione diretta dal flacone positivo del batterio responsabile della sepsi e, di conseguenza, l'antibiogramma dello stesso. Ciò causa un ritardo di almeno due giorni nell'approccio alla terapia. Obiettivi. Le setticemie sono tra le principali cause di morte, per questo è importante sia i… Show more

“…Conversely, screening of UTI was carried out using Alifax Alfred and HB&L analyzer requires 180 min to be able to offer the result and requires a dedicated staff and equipment. Moreover, the Alifax Alfred and HB&L system have some interesting potential applications in microbiological diagnostics of other fluids (Barocci et al, 2010;Cavallaro and Squarzon, 2009;Fontana et al, 2009;Tessari et al, 2010). Also, it can be used to quickly make the direct test of chemosensitivity to antibacterial drugs (Barocci et al, 2010).…”

“…Considering cultural test for rapid diagnosis of UTI in Italy, the system Alifax Alfred and HB&L is largely diffused (Ballabio et al, 2010;Ilki et al, 2010). This system was used also for non urinary samples (Barocci et al, 2010;Cavallaro and Squarzon, 2009;Fontana et al, 2009;Tessari et al, 2010).…”
