The BD Phoenix 100 instrument provides clinicians with accurate and timely identification and susceptibility results to help guide their therapy and patient management decisions.

Microorganism identification and susceptibility testing:

•              The BD Phoenix™ 100 system instrument offers identification-only panels and combination ID/AST panels, using 51 wells for identification substrates.

•              The system can provide rapid identification of most clinically significant Gram-negative and Gram- positive bacteria, as well as yeast.

•              The BD Phoenix 100 system offers 85 wells for antimicrobial dilutions on standard AST-only panels and combination ID/AST panels, and 136 wells on the BD Phoenix Emerge panel.

•              The instrument can provide rapid susceptibility results for most clinically significant Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

•              The BD Phoenix 100 system panels test for several resistance markers.

•              The BD Phoenix™ 100 instrument determines growth using oxidation-reduction indicator and turbidity growth detection to help provide rapid and accurate susceptibility results.

•              The BD Phoenix system utilizes on-panel doubling dilutions of antimicrobial concentrations for determination of MIC results.
