NAST (Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing System)

by MedFluid Co., Ltd.

Solution Detail

The NAST system is a cutting-edge in-house antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) solution designed to empower veterinarians and animal clinics with rapid, accurate, and cost-effective antimicrobial resistance diagnostics. It utilizes patented microfluidic technology and an automated detection instrument to generate Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) values and categorize antimicrobial susceptibility much faster than traditional laboratory methods — significantly reducing turnaround time from days to as little as 6–32 hours.

Core Features

Rapid Results

AST reports available in 6–32 hours, enabling timely treatment decisions.

Accurate & Reliable Assessment

Leveraging microfluidic technology for precise susceptibility measurement.

Comprehensive Antibiotics Panels

Includes broad testing across multiple antibiotics via MB04 and MB07 panels.

Automated & User-Friendly

Automated incubation, detection, analysis, and Windows-based software streamline workflow.

Compact & Portable Device

Designed for in-clinic use in veterinary environments.

Cost-Effective Solution

Reduces dependence on external laboratories for AST.

Why Choose NAST?

  • Fights antimicrobial resistance (AMR) by providing actionable data quickly so veterinarians can prescribe the most effective antibiotics.

  • Improves animal clinical outcomes by significantly reducing diagnostic delays that can worsen infections.

  • Simplifies clinic operations by bringing AST capabilities directly into the practice, eliminating costly central lab turnaround times.

  • Supports antimicrobial stewardship — better antibiotic use helps preserve efficacy and slows the spread of resistance.
