Global Automated Microbiology Market: Overview
Automated microbiology is one of the key requirements for fast and more accurate results in field of clinical laboratories. Automated microbiology is used to identify the virus or bacteria. Automated microbiology is used in the clinical chemistry and clinical hematology areas of diagnostics laboratories.
Global Automated Microbiology Market: Dynamics
Increasing frequency of pathogen causes chronic disease. To prevent form diseases many laboratories are using automated microbiology that can detect the bacteria in the early stage, making it easier for professionals to detect the virus or bacteria. Automated microbiology helps in detecting bacteria such as parasites, fungus, viroid, etc. These bacteria can cause unpleasant disease for example, rubella, chickenpox, mumps. The lack of professionals in lab testing and increasing demand for laboratory testing have lead the growth of the global automated microbiology in the market.
Increasing need for fast results with high accuracy, and rising concerns about health safety and increasing number of footfalls in hospitals is expected to result in requirement for laboratory services. These factors are expected to support growth of the target market.
However, high cost of manufacturing of equipment might hinder revenue growth of the global market. In addition, dearth of highly skilled professionals to operate the equipment may hamper the growth of the market.
Key trend observed in the market is that the major companies are focusing on developing new systems with enhanced technology such as high thermal stability and powerful proprietary algorithms, in order to increase sales and sustain in the market.
Global Automated Microbiology Market: Segmental Analysis
Among the deployment segment, the monoclonal antibodies segment is expected to dominate in the global market with highest revenue contribution. The clinical laboratories segment is estimated to account for second-highest revenue share in the target market.
Global Automated Microbiology Market: Regional analysis
North America market is estimated to account for major share in terms of revenue in the global market, owing to increasing investments in R&D and development of new technologies and introduction of high-tech laboratory tests. Moreover, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and disorders is expected to result in rising need for laboratory tests. The Asia Pacific market is projected to register significant CAGR owing to growing medical tourism industry in countries in the region.

Patent Number: US20110124028A1
Automated microbial detection apparatus
Abstract
A method and automated apparatus for rapid non-invasive detection of a microbial agent in a test sample is described herein. The apparatus may include one or more means for automated loading, automated transfer and/or automated unloading of a specimen container. The apparatus also includes a detection system for receiving a detection container, e.g., container or vial, containing a biological sample and culture media. The detection system may also include one or more heated sources, holding structures or racks, and/or a detection unit for monitoring and/or interrogating the specimen container to detect whether the container is positive for the presence of a microbial agent therein. In other embodiment, the automated instrument may include one or more, bar code readers, scanners, cameras, and/or weighing stations to aid in scanning, reading, imaging and weighing of specimen containers within the system.

Patent Number: US7238519B2
Automated immunoassay cassette, apparatus and method
Abstract
An immunoassay cassette, apparatus, and method for detecting an analyte in a liquid body-fluid sample are disclosed. The cassette has a body and a support mounted on the body, for movement relative to the body to first and second transfer positions. Sample supplied to a sample well in the cassette body is transferred to a reagent reservoir on the cassette body, by moving the support to its first transfer position. Here the sample reacts with a first reagent composition in the reservoir effective to form a modified sample. The modified sample is then transferred to a reagent strip on the support by moving the support to its second transfer position. The reagent strip has a transfer zone at which sample material is transferred to the strip, a second reagent composition effective to react with the modified sample to form a detectable analyte-dependent product, and a detection zone located downstream at which the detectable product can be observed. By controlling movement of the support to its first and second positions, the cassette can effectively handle a variety of samples having different flow rates.

Automated immunoassay cassette, apparatus and method
Abstract
An immunoassay cassette, apparatus, and method for detecting an analyte in a liquid body-fluid sample are disclosed. The cassette has a body and a support mounted on the body, for movement toward and away from a sample transfer position. Sample supplied to a sample well in the cassette body is taken up by a reagent reservoir containing a first reagent composition effective to form a modified sample. The support provides a reagent strip having a transfer zone that is brought into contact with the reservoir, when the support is in the transfer position, a detection zone located downstream of the transfer zone, and a second reagent composition effective to react with the modified sample to form a detectable analyte-dependent product. By controlling movement of the support, volume and rate of sample flow from the reservoir to the strip can be controlled to optimize and/or standardize sample-transfer conditions in the assay.

Below are the key development related to Automated Microbiology Market in 2020 and 2021.
May 2021: BD Leverages Artificial Intelligence To Transform Microbiology Urine Testing. U.S. Launch of BD Kiestra™ Urine Culture Application Helps Accelerate Workflow and Drive Lab Efficiency. BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX), a leading global medical technology company, announced the U.S. launch of a Urine Culture Application for use with the BD Kiestra™ lab automation incubation and imaging system that can transform the way microbiology labs approach urine culture analysis. Designed using artificial intelligence (AI) and leveraging the quality of BD BBL™ plated media, the application uses digital imaging and software algorithms to determine the amount of growth on a urine culture plate from clean caught and catheterized samples. The BD Kiestra™ systems intelligent incubation and imaging device uses high-throughput robotics to perform time series imaging, coupled with machine learning so that plates with no significant growth can be released for disposal and plates with significant growth automatically go into a queue for clinician analysis. In many labs, urine cultures make up a significant part of the daily workload — however, the majority of those samples have no growth or non-significant growth and dont require any additional work-up. Batch review of large volumes of plates with non-significant growth and release can help medical laboratorians focus their time and expertise on more clinically relevant tasks.
