OpGen Acuitas Gene Panel u.547 Test

OpGen has announced today the commercial availability of its Acuitas AMR Gene Panel u5.47 test. The research-use-only test was developed to detect the most common bacterial causes of complicated urinary tract infections from urine and isolated colonies. The gene panel also detects 47 gene targets that indicate antibiotic resistance. Test results are typically available in less than three hours compared to traditional microbiology methods, which require two to three days to produce results.
