  • Simple and standardized sample preparation. Fully traceable steps for easier, more reliable workflow1
  • Intuitive user interface with guided workflow steps and illustrations
  • Faster cassette loading and processing takes up to 20% less time2
  •  Shortest hands-on time, with 40-50% fewer workflow steps3, 4

FASTEST ROUTINE ID & AST RESULTS.

  • Routine AST results as early as 6-8 hrs., with preliminary results to inform clinicians earlier3, 5, 6
  • Highly accurate susceptibility results and resistant phenotype detection7, 8
  • Auto-transfer of validated ID & AST results to LIS
  • Accurate MIC - compliant with EUCAST/CLSI or FDA standards 

MICROBIOLOGY EXPERTISE.

  • VITEK® 2 Advanced Expert System™ (AES): provides accurate phenotypic profile to enable detection of new and emerging resistance patterns and therapeutic guidance
  • An extensive, evolving database of 15,500 antibiotic-organism combinations, and 3,800+ phenotypes9 
  • The most extensive knowledge base for latest antibiotic-organism combinations, updated breakpoints and taxonomy
  • Clinical microbiology education & training support

For faster results, delivered with confidence

“VITEK® Advanced Expert System™ contributes to higher quality of the antimicrobial susceptibility results with simultaneously reducing hands on time, accelerating time-to result and time to validated report.”
