Description
Certain microorganisms can cause severe diseases and considerable damage, and need to be identified quickly and reliably. The easy-to-use iDPlus Microbial Identification System is the ideal tool to address these concerns. With iDPlus, cultured microorganisms can be directly applied to the MALDI sample target and introduced to an AXIMA series MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer to revolutionize the daily routine in analytical and diagnostic laboratories.
Key features:
- Fast Response, Outstanding Recovery Rate – iDPlus can identify 380 clinical research samples within 5 hours in the high-throughput mode, less than one minute per sample.
- Identifies and classifies strains based on phenotype characteristics
- SuperSpectra™ reduce the incidence of false positives and ensure robustness and reproducibility
- No pre-selection of analytical methods required
- Open system allows addition of new species / entries to the database or the creation of new databases
- Clustering allows molecular profiling and tracking of change or evolution
- High performance MS for large molecule analysis
- MS/MS options allow structural analysis
Application examples include:
- Diagnosis of human and veterinarian infectious pathogens
- Drug discovery process – iDPlus recognizes new isolates generated by microorganisms and classifies the unknown into a taxonomic tree
- Culture collections – Identification and classification of strains based on phenotype characteristics
- Food and beverage manufacturing processes – Recognition of upcoming toxic microorganisms at an early stage.
