QMAC-dRAST for the direct testing of antibiotic susceptibility for Enterobacterales in positive blood-culture broth: a comparison of the performances with the MicroScan system and direct disc diffusion testing methods.

The QMAC-dRAST system provided rapid results well correlated with the reference method on PBCB containing Enterobacterales. Given the shorter time-to-results, the QMAC-dRAST system constitutes a fast and reliable alternative to conventional AST methods.
