Chapters
- 00:04Introduction
- 00:38Deuterium (D2O) Incorporation Treatment in the Presence of Antibiotics
- 03:50Preparation of Bacteria in Urine Environment and Blood Environment
- 05:42Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) Imaging of D2O Metabolic Incorporation in a Single Bacterium
- 08:44Results: The Influence of Deuterium Incorporation on Bacterial Growth
- 11:14Conclusion
This protocol presents rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) assay within 2.5 h by single-cell-stimulated Raman scattering imaging of D2O metabolism. This method applies to bacteria in the urine or whole blood environment, which is transformative for rapid single-cell phenotypic AST in the clinic.
