September 2019—Streck introduced three antibiotic resistance detection kits and its blood collection tube at the AACC Annual Scientific Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo, Aug. 6-–8, in Anaheim, Calif.

The Streck ARM-D Kits for MCR, expanded OXA, and TEM/SHV/GES screen more than 1,000 resistance gene variants. Streck ARM-D Kits include all five carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae gene families: KPC, OXA, NDM, IMP, and VIM. Colistin resistance target genes include MCR-1, MCR-2, MCR-3, MCR-4, and MCR-5. The research use only Streck ARM-D Kits are comprehensive, including targets for ampCs as well as extended-spectrum b-lactamases.
