Invisible enemies: Revolutionizing infection control and microbial identification
June 13, 2025 - 16:00 BST / 17:00 CEST / 11:00 EDT / 08:00 PDT
Detect invisible enemies with speed and precision to enhance infection control in your healthcare institution.
Infection control prevents or stops the spread of infections in healthcare settings. The Bruker IR Biotyper, using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, can differentiate microorganisms on the strain level, supporting infection control practices and timely data results.
Join Dr. Philip Jessmon as he demonstrates the value of the IR Biotyper technology along with the complementary MALDI Biotyper technology for rapid microorganism identification.
Key learning objectives:
- Summarize the impact on hospital hygiene for receiving rapid microbial results
- Identify how Fourier Transform-Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy technology is used for outbreak identification
- Assess how an FT-IR solution impacts infection control and prevention
Who should attend?
- Clinical microbiologists
- Lab directors, managers, supervisors and technicians
- Hospital administrators
- Epidemiologists
- Infection prevention specialists
- Infection control nurses
- Infection preventionists
- Infectious disease doctors
- Research or clinical PhDs
- Certified infection control (CIC) credentialed people
- Public health laboratory technicians
- Directors/Managers/Supervisors
- AMR stewardship committee members
