GeneSpark DX – Bacterial and AMR Bloodstream Infection Panels

GeneSpark is developing its bloodstream infection Bacterial (ESKAPE Plus) Panel and AMR Panel that cover most of the urgent and serious threats of resistant bacteria and their associated resistant genes according to the CDC’s list. GeneSpark's AMR Panel includes most prevalent Gram (-) and Gram (+) resistant genes.

  • The sample processing requires ~5 minutes to capture and concentrate pathogens
  • No blood culture required
  • Automated nucleic acid amplification using GeneSpark DX
  • Sample to results turnaround time in under one hour
  • Specifically identify pathogens and resistant genes 
  • Actionable results to guide physicians to better manage initial treatment decisions 
  • Antibiotic stewardship
