Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
The Colibri System is an automated device for sample preparation and identification of microorganisms from cultured isolates using mass spectrometry. Classified as an automated system for microbiology, it streamlines the processing of bacterial colonies for rapid identification via MALDI-TOF technology, supporting both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.
This system is designed for microbiology laboratories and automates colony picking and microbial suspension preparation for mass spectrometry-based identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST). Supplied as a reusable instrument, it is intended for use with compatible mass spectrometry platforms such as bioMérieux VITEK MS, Bruker MALDI Biotyper, and AST systems like VITEK 2 or MicroScan. Authorized under FDA 510(k) and IVDR, the device adheres to regulatory standards for microbiological diagnostics, with no specific sterility or MRI safety requirements stated.
