Antibiotic resistance is a major threat against humanity. 1928D is dedicated to fight antibiotic resistance and increase control of infectious disease - ultimately saving lives. This is accomplished by providing an online platform for automated and powerful DNA data analysis.
1928D has built a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that reduces time to treatment from several days to just hours for antibiotic-resistant infections. By identifying resistance markers in bacterial DNA, the correct antibiotic treatment is started earlier, thereby saving lives and reducing costs associated with bacterial infections. In addition, full outbreak traceability and surveillance are ensured through a bacterial ID based on its fingerprint.
