Microfluidic cantilever detects bacteria and measures their susceptibility to antibiotics in small confined volumes
Analysis of bacteria and their response to antibiotics in real time is challenging. Here the authors report a microcantilever based system that can detect and discriminate between bacteria species and, due to the ability to discriminate between alive and dead samples, measure response to antibiotics...
