Detection & Diagnostics
Insights that can improve response readiness and public health
Tools for a Fast Response
MRIGlobal has decades of experience developing, optimizing, and evaluating technologies to identify pathogens, biomarkers, and other clinically relevant targets. Our expertise includes targeted and agnostic detection approaches, including next-generation sequencing (NGS), which can include comprehensive characterization of known, emerging, and previously unrecognized biological agents. These capabilities support disease detection, outbreak investigations, patient monitoring, biosurveillance, and regulatory-compliant diagnostic performance. By integrating advanced molecular diagnostics, sequencing technologies, and analytical expertise, MRIGlobal helps accelerate product development, reduce technical and regulatory risk, and deliver IVD and RUO solutions.

The Threat of Antimicrobial Resistance
There are potentially billions of different types of bacteria, and they’re found almost everywhere. Some are friends while others are foes. Studies show that kitchen sponges contain 45 billion bacteria per square centimeter. Another study suggests that your desktop has 400 times more bacteria than your toilet seat. And did you know that the average […]

Battling Antimicrobial Resistance
When an antibiotic treatment regimen is not successfully completed by a patient, the surviving bacteria have encountered the evolutionary pressure of the antibiotics that killed off a majority of their weaker population. These surviving, stronger bacteria are able to persist and continue growing inside the patient, eventually becoming strong enough to again cause symptoms. Because […]

Developing Custom Pathogen Detection Panels
Anthrax, botulism, and plague. Most people are familiar with these names but may not recognize the significant work it takes to keep these and other biological agents from posing a threat. As part of this work, our team at MRIGlobal develops custom pathogen detection panels, creating solutions that help maintain public health and safety. Bio-Preparedness […]
