Modern sepsis diagnostics laboratory with advanced blood culture testing equipment

    Revolutionizing Sepsis Diagnostics Through Rapid Sample Preparation

    Every minute matters in sepsis diagnosis. Our innovative pre-analytical platform delivers rapid diagnosis-ready samples, accelerating life-saving diagnostic workflows.

    Microbiologists are the unsung heroes of the hospital.

    They guide life-or-death therapy decisions, often with limited time and an ever-growing queue of samples. Yet the tools at their disposal rarely match the urgency of their work. Workflows stay slow and labour-intensive. Faster options usually demand bigger budgets, specialised instruments, or extra manual steps.

    BugSee changes that rhythm.

    Our sample-preparation solutions break the classic trade-off between speed, performance, and cost. Co-developed with microbiologists, our solution fit seamlessly into existing clinical routines and our kits even run on standard lab equipment. No new instruments. No workflow disruption. Just a faster path to actionable samples.

    Why this matters

    Sepsis can escalate from mild symptoms to organ failure in under a day. Across Europe, 3.4 million people develop sepsis each year, and up to 700,000 do not survive. Early, targeted therapy is essential, but identifying the pathogen and its antimicrobial susceptibility often still takes 2–3 days.

    The real bottleneck: workload

    Behind every sepsis diagnosis sits an unexpected amount of manual labour. Each blood culture requires around 80 minutes of hands-on work, spread across multiple steps and dependent on trained personnel. This limits throughput, restricts availability outside regular lab hours, and creates strain for smaller or resource-limited hospitals.

    What BugSee brings

    Fast. Effective. Affordable.

    BugSee's streamlined sample-prep helps labs move faster without increasing workload or cost. By preserving viable pathogens while clearing the background noise of blood, we help microbiologists deliver clearer answers, sooner.

    Because our solutions fit seamlessly into the existing workflow, microbiologists can focus more on interpretation and decision-making, and less on tedious prep. More clarity, less strain.
