Personalized antibiotic treatment

A sensor platform that quantifies antibiotics in human blood within minutes has now been developed by researchers. This biosensor system could be used for medical diagnostics in the future, especially for point-of-care testing in doctors ’ practices, on house calls and in pharmacies, as well as in environmental and food safety testing. The researchers focused their study on the antibiotics tetracycline and streptogramin in human blood.
