Inventors include Mistretta, Maxime; De La Comble, Alos; Hamdani, Massilia; and Pottier, Marine.
The application for the patent was published on July 24, 2026, under issue no. 30/2026.
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for detecting bacteria in a sample, comprising an optical unit (4) which is arranged to produce sets of multispectral images of portions of a sample, obtained by illumination eliciting an autofluorescence response and by illumination eliciting a reflectance response. These sets of multispectral images are supplied to an analyser (6) comprising a classifier which produces an image in which each pixel is drawn from an identical pixel of the images of the set of multispectral images and is associated with an element identifier indicating whether this pixel is associated with a bacterium or with another element. This image is then used by a computer to determine bacteria detection data.
