Antimicrobial Screening Facility

Antimicrobial Screening Facility

  • Antimicrobial resistance is a growing global issue.

    There are 1.2 million deaths globally associated with antimicrobial resistance. Take a look at what researchers at Warwick are doing to try and combat AMR.

  • Do you have the next antimicrobial?

    Users benefit from our extensive expertise in microbiology and antimicrobial research.

  • Automated, High-Throughput Protocols

    Our approachable scientists are happy to advise on automated high-throughput experimental design and can provide personalised guidance throughout.

  • Extensive range of bacteria, fungi and yeast.

    Comprehensive libraries of clinical, environmental and reference organisms.
