April 2019- Professor Douglas Kell along with his colleagues have come up with a new technology which can help to identify the most powerful antibiotic for killing organisms in UTI. This new technology will play a pivotal part in fighting anti-microbial resistance. It uses flow cytometry that can detect and count individual bacteria present in the urine sample as well as decide which antibiotic will be the most efficient to kill those bacteria. The patient will then be prescribed with an antibiotic that is the most effective.
