The BD Kiestra ID module will be offered in early 2019 and the ID/AST module will be available in mid-2019, initially in Europe and Canada, after regulatory authorizations are secured. BD Kiestra ID/AST modules automate the processing steps for bacterial identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing using the BD Bruker MALDI and BD Phoenix systems. These systems use a single organism to ensure the same bacteria is used in both tests.
The company also highlighted the CE-IVD-marked BD Max enteric viral panel, available in two configurations, for the identification of norovirus, rotavirus, adenovirus, sapovirus, and human astrovirus.
