MALDI-Tof Mass Spectrometry system used for microbial identification


Product Overview

MALDI
VITEK® MS - 410895


Device Description

An assembly of mains electricity (AC-powered) devices intended to be used for the qualitative detection and identification of microbial species (bacteria, fungi) in a clinical specimen using mass spectrometry. It typically consists of a sample handling/preparation unit, a mass spectrometry instrument, and a server with software intended to analyse results and compare the produced spectra with information in a remote database to identify and report the microbial species in the specimen. The system operates with reduced technician involvement and automation of some, but not all, procedural steps.
