Astek Diagnostics (Private)
Astek Diagnostics is a medical device company, formed in 2020 to commercialize a novel technology for detecting bacterial infections in blood.
Astek’s first product will be the EugrisTM, a benchtop analyzer that can identify the presence of a bacterial infection in the blood and then perform antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) of the bacterium in one hour. This will inform physicians which antibiotics would be best to give to patients in a short period of time.
