SIRscan LYNX is the latest, compact version of i2a's antimicrobial susceptibility testing system.
Its main components are (a slide-in drawer housing) a high-resolution colour camera and the SIRxpert software. This semi-automated lightweight differs from the fully automated SIRscan ORION only in that the incubated AST plates must be loaded manually. Thanks to the proven SIRxpert software, SIRscan LYNX is a powerful, space-saving tool for the microbiology laboratory.
SIRxpert is software and expert system in one. Automated expertise is provided by interpreting raw AST results and data from connected identification systems (e.g. MALDI-TOF) according to the generally accepted standards for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, such as EUCAST or CLSI. In addition, the open software lets you design and annotate your results and reports to suit your needs.
