Application of a solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/metal oxide sensor system for detection of antibiotic susceptibility in urinary tract infection-causing Escherichia coli - A proof of principle study

CONCLUSIONS: The results of our study showed the potential of VOC analysis using SPME combined with a GC-MS/MOS system for the early detection of CTX-M-producing, antibiotic-resistant E. coli, responsible for urinary tract infections (UTIs).PMID:34562855 | DOI:10.1016/j.advms.2021.09.001
