Automated Rapid Microbial Mass Spectrometry Detection System (VITEK/MS 410895) Introduction

Product Overview

The VITEK/MS 410895 is an automated microbial mass spectrometry detection system developed by bioMérieux (France). Based on MALDI-TOF (Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight) technology, it enables rapid identification of bacteria, fungi, anaerobes, and mycobacteria within minutes, significantly improving clinical microbiological testing efficiency.

Core Technical Features

1. High Throughput & Rapid Detection

   • Maximum throughput of 192 samples per run (4 sample plates × 48 wells), supporting simultaneous operation by multiple technicians.
   • Ultra-fast identification: Results at species/genus/family level are generated in 30-60 seconds, drastically reducing turnaround time compared to traditional methods (1.5–3 days).

2. High-Accuracy Database

   • Clinical database covers 1,300+ microbial species, while the research database extends to 1,500 species, including rare pathogens like Vibrio cholerae and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
   • Utilizes protein fingerprint matching technology, achieving >90% accuracy in distinguishing closely related species (e.g., Streptococcus pneumoniae vs. Streptococcus mitis).

3. Intelligent & User-Friendly Design

   • Equipped with VITEK MS Prep Station software for barcode scanning and data tracking, minimizing human error.
   • Simplified workflow: Only two steps (bacterial smearing + matrix application) are required, eliminating staining or additional reagents to reduce costs.

Applications & Advantages

Widely used in clinical infection diagnosis, rational antibiotic use, and hospital infection control, its integrated identification & antimicrobial susceptibility testing solution (paired with VITEK 2 system) optimizes laboratory workflows. The system is SFDA-certified, offering high efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

Note: For optimal performance, operate in a temperature-controlled (15–30°C) and low-humidity (<60%) environment.
