Abstract

See full text

Various apparatus, systems, and methods for determining a susceptibility of an infectious agent to an anti-infective are disclosed. In one aspect, a system comprises a well plate, a sensor array lid configured to cover the well plate, and a reader for receiving the well plate covered by the sensor array lid. The well plate comprises wells including test wells comprising an anti-infective and at least one control well devoid of the anti-infective. Each of the wells is configured to receive and contain a sample. The sensor array lid comprises a plurality of sensor units. Each of the sensor units is configured to extend into a well of the well plate. Each of the sensor units comprises an active electrode and a reference electrode used by the reader to detect any changes in the solution characteristics within the wells to determine the susceptibility of the infectious agent to the anti-infective.
