Hardy Diagnostics Partners with Gradientech
Hardy Diagnostics has partnered exclusively with Gradientech to distribute QuickMIC® — a rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing system — in the United States and Canada. QuickMIC® offers essential results for sepsis patients, aiming to support timely antibiotic treatment decisions. This is identified as a critical need as sepsis impacts millions and results in high mortality rates annually. With sepsis requiring urgent action, often referred to as treatment within the 'golden hour,' QuickMIC® addresses this demand by providing faster lab results than traditional methods.
Currently undergoing clinical trials in the U.S., Hardy Diagnostics' rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing system is already being utilized in various European hospitals. Through this collaboration, Hardy Diagnostics will leverage its extensive distribution network to introduce QuickMIC® across North America. This aligns well with Hardy’s experience and presence in the clinical microbiology field.
