Dielectrophoretic Rapid characterization of Antimicrobial resistance bacteria Escherichia coli

Rapid characterization antimicrobial resistance bacteria are crucial for critical solving of Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) increases around the world. Antibiotic resistance bacteria contribute to the numerous infections all around the world which lead to death over 4.95 million. Escherichia Coli is part of multidrug resistant bacteria and in this study, we present experimental of susceptible and resistant strain of Escherichia Coli on one single frequency point-based MyDEP simulation which is 0.47 MHz called crossover frequency to differentiate the dielectrophoresis (DEP) response between susceptible and resistant strain when exposed to it experimentally. This experimental finding show the reaction of susceptible and resistant type of E. coli using crossover frequency are different as both bacteria exhibit different polarization factor due to minimal different of physical properties. These support the rapid bacterial cell characterization to be an alternative aid in faster diagnosis of bacterial infections and benefit the clinical decision-making process for antibiotic treatment, addressing the critical issue of AMR.
