Abstract: ABSTRACT RAPID DETECTION TEST FOR ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE PATHOGENS FOR ANTIBIOTICS The present invention relates to rapid detection test for antimicrobial resistance pathogens for antibiotics. Particularly, it relates to a test strip and a method for rapid detection of antimicrobial resistance or susceptibility in bacterial pathogens, providing colorimetric results within 30 to 75 minutes. The test strip comprises a white polyester matrix laminate base support with an adhesive backing and a cellulose-based yarn fibrous material detector pad comprising 2 to 6 filaments, each composed of 150 to 500 regenerative fibers twisted at 80 to 200 twists per inch, creating nano and micro capillaries facilitating enhanced wicking, capillary flow absorption, and uniform reagent distribution. A colorimetric reagent comprising combination of at least one semi-synthetic dye and natural dye impregnated on the detector pad. The method comprises preparing a bacterial suspension, mixing with antibiotic solution, incubating, applying to the detector pad, and interpreting results based on colour change indicating resistance or susceptibility.
