Detecting antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli using benchtop attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and machine learning

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: in independent testing, approaching the reported performance of FTIR microscopy. With further algorithm improvement, these data suggest the potential deployment of a portable FTIR spectrometer as a rapid antimicrobial susceptibility prediction platform to enable the efficient use of antimicrobials.
