متن کاملComparison of MALDI TOF with conventional identification of clinically relevant bacteria.
BACKGROUND A completely new approach to diagnose microbial agents at least one day earlier based on mass spectrometric analysis becomes possible in the microbiology laboratory: MALDI TOF: matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight. Comparison between results of the new procedure with those obtained by conventional testing is mandatory. METHODS 204 clinical isolates grown on ag...
متن کاملOptimizing identification of clinically relevant Gram-positive organisms by use of the Bruker Biotyper matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry system.
Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) can be used as a method for the rapid identification of microorganisms. This study evaluated the Bruker Biotyper (MALDI-TOF MS) system for the identification of clinically relevant Gram-positive organisms. We tested 239 aerobic Gram-positive organisms isolated from clinical specimens. We evaluated 4 dire...
متن کاملPrevalence and Identification of Lactobacillus Species Isolated from Infected Root Canals by MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry, 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing and API 50 CHL
Lactobacillus, a part of the commensal oral microflora, is frequently found in infected root canals but is not considered to be an endodontic pathogen. Lactobacilli have proven to be difficult to identify on species level with biochemical and gene sequencing methods. MALDI-TOF is a new identification method and to our knowledge it has not been used on lactobacilli from infected root canals. The...
متن کاملCombined approach to the identification of clinically infrequent non-tuberculous mycobacteria in Argentina.
SETTING Over 150 potentially pathogenic non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species have been described, posing an onerous challenge for clinical laboratory diagnosis. OBJECTIVE To evaluate different approaches for the identification of 40 clinically relevant NTM isolates whose species were not reliably identified using our routine diagnostic workflow comprising phenotypic tests and hsp65 poly...
