Radian® is the complete solution to automate and interpret Disk Diffusion Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing.
Automated processes are the Lab’s turning point to reach new heights of flexibility, quality, process management and optimization, and of course prestige.
Copan will take you by hand, wipe out all uncertainties, and guide you through this breakthrough change!
Disk diffusion is the only Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing that provides a true image of bacterial growth, enabling microbiologists to detect culture purity, heterogeneous growth or colony morphology, as well as antibiotic interactions, to adapt antimicrobial treatment more rapidly. With Radian®, you can have your cake and eat it too. Automation gets rid of the disadvantages linked to manual Disk Diffusion while maintaining at the same time its original advantages.
A fast time to result is crucial in the treatment of critical patients. Integrating EUCAST Rapid AST Rules (R-AST) into the automated workflow, Radian® is the first fully automated solution to provide accurate therapy indications from positive hemoculture starting from a four-hours incubation.
Thanks to the Expert System’s fully customizable incubation times, you can now provide treatment indications with the incubation times that best fit your lab’s workflow.
Combined with the other modules, Radian® pushes the boundaries of clinical microbiology automation, helping clinicians take rapid therapeutic decisions.
Colibrí™ prepares the AST tube**, WASP® streaks with the fitting pattern, and WASPLab® imaging system and algorithms make possible the Expert Interpretation.
Efficiency, scalability, cost-saving, TAT reduction, resource optimization: the transition to an automated lab is a radical step that will change your whole perspective on the future of your lab.
There is no top-grade laboratory without a plan for automatization.
Radian® In-Line Carousel receives plates dedicated to AST disk dispensing on a parallel conveyor, without compromising the throughput of WASP® and WASPLab®.
Radian® categorizes antibiotic susceptibility results using EUCAST/CLSI updated rules, laboratory RAPID expert rules, and EUCAST RAPID rules to allow the possibility of performing Rapid Antibiotic Susceptibility
Testing (R-AST).
Radian® In-Line Carousel allows high disk dispensing flexibility thanks to its 50 positions ATB wheel and its 1 to 8 disk deposit protocols, assuring high quality and standardization.
Through the easy and intuitive graphic interface, the operator can report fast and consult the data readily, and autonomously customise Radian® Expert System.
The integration of WASPLab® WebApp, Radian®, and LIS maximizes data traceability and management and helps supporting everyday routines, as well as epidemiological studies.
Get an idea of how the Radian® In-Line Carousel and Expert System integrate with your laboratory routine.
Swipe through the Traditional AST workflow and the Rapid Blood Culture workflow**.
Use one of COPAN’s variety of top-quality collection and transport devices.
Start the automatized journey of the specimen with WASP® and WASPLab®.
Use the PhenoMATRIX® TAG/Colibrí™ combination to analyze culture, tag best colonies, and prepare AST suspensions**.
Now back to WASP® for automatic streaking with this task-specific loop and pattern.
The In-Line Carousel is now ready to dispense ATB disks and WASPLab® for incubation and image analysis.
The Expert System analyzes the digital plates, interprets halo values according to standard EUCAST or with your own custom rules.
That’s it! Validate as is, or adapt the results, and send them to LIS with just one click.
Transfer a sample from a positive blood culture into Copan BC+™.
Load BC+™ directly into WASP® for it to be streaked with a dedicated streaking pattern.
Radian® In-Line Carousel automatically applies disks according to the chosen protocol.
Apply EUCAST Rapid Rules for Incubation, and let WASPLab® digitalize plates at different times.
Radian® Expert System interprets halo values according to Rapid EUCAST or with your own custom rules.
That’s it! Validate as is, or adapt the results, and send them to LIS with just one click.
