Rapid UTI test that cuts detection time to 45 minutes awarded Longitude prize The £8m award goes to system that could herald ‘sea change’ in antibiotic use by identifying correct treatment for urinary tract infections within 45 minutes

Really nice work. And how is the cost per test too high if it shaves days off a diagnosis & reduces #BacterialResistance?? ~~>
