Method and Device for Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing based on Fluctuations of Electrical Resistance in a Microchannel

The device is a microfluidic channel into which a bacteria solution is introduced. The resistance of the microchannel is monitored as bacteria swim into and out of the channel. By a simple resistance measurement, one can determine whether or not bacteria is live. Thus it can enable antibiotic susceptibility testing of bacteria. Frances Forrester fmf@bu.edu (617) 358-6911
