Pushing Antimicrobial Susceptibility, testing at full speed.
Radian® is the complete solution to automate and interpret Disk Diffusion Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing.
Disk diffusion is the only Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing that provides a true image of bacterial growth, enabling microbiologists to detect culture purity, heterogeneous growth or colony morphology, as well as antibiotic interactions, to adapt antimicrobial treatment more rapidly. With Radian®, you can have your cake and eat it too. Automation gets rid of the disadvantages linked to manual Disk Diffusion while maintaining at the same time its original advantages.
Radian® is composed of 2 modules:
- Radian® In-Line Carousel: the WASPlab®’s module that takes care of disk dispensation, ensuring optimal integration and throughput.
- Radian® Expert System: leverages WASPlab®’s superior Digital Imaging and EUCAST rules to deliver an exceptionally accurate SIR interpretation.
Advantages:
- Expresses the full potential of disk diffusion susceptibility testing.
- Connecting Colibrì™, WASP®, WASPlab®, and Radian®: a new workflow perfectly integrated.
- Applies EUCAST standard and rapid rules from direct blood cultures automatically.
- Enables early antibiotic therapy for the final benefit of patients.
- Radian® In-Line Carousel receives plates dedicated to AST disk dispensing on a parallel conveyor, without compromising the throughput of WASP® and WASPlab®.
- Radian® In-Line Carousel allows high disk dispensing flexibility thanks to its 50 positions ATB wheel and its 1 to 8 disk deposit protocols, assuring high quality and standardisation.
- Through the easy and intuitive graphic interface, the operator can report fast and consult the data readily, and autonomously customise Radian® Expert system.
