Rapid, Reliable Analysis for Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing

The Synbiosis eAST Software is an intelligent analysis module designed for rapid, automated interpretation of antibiotic susceptibility tests (AST). Working seamlessly with ProtoCOL 3 and ChromaZona systems, it measures inhibition zones, interprets antibiotic resistance, and generates instant, traceable reports — delivering fast, standardised results for clinical and research microbiology laboratories.

 

Automation

At the touch of a button, eAST automatically compares measured inhibition zones against the latest EUCAST and CLSI breakpoint data. This instant interpretation removes the need for manual look-ups, ensuring results are accurate, consistent, and available in a fraction of the time required by traditional methods.

 

Efficiency

The software clearly lists which antibiotics each organism is sensitive, intermediate, or resistant to, simplifying data review and reporting. Automated analysis cuts processing time, improves workflow efficiency, and supports confident decision-making in busy laboratories.

Compliance

Fully GLP and GDP compliant, eAST generates detailed zone measurement reports and annotated plate images that can be securely transferred into Excel, PDF, CSV, or combined with your LIMS. This ensures traceable, error-free data management with full audit trails — meeting the requirements of regulated environments and supporting 21 CFR Part 11 compliance when used with compatible Synbiosis systems.
