CLARITY IN HOURS BY FAST AND ACCURATE MOLECULAR DETECTION Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Gram-negative bacteria is increasing sharply worldwide. The same applies to Salmonella infections in the food and animal protein production chain. In these cases, it is essential to diagnose this as fast as possible in order to prevent the spread of these issues. Check-Points has used the specific characteristics of DNA to develop molecular assays to detect beta-lactam resistance in the form of carbapenemases, ESBLs, and AmpCs within Enterobacteriaceae. This innovative molecular technology obtains much faster results - within 2.5 hours - with higher accuracy and genotypic information. Check-Points has also developed a unique range of rapid molecular assays that support commercial laboratory organizations and animal protein food companies in identifying and serotyping Salmonella infections within 8 hours.
