AccuPro-ID® Bacterial Identification Using MALDI-TOF Technical Sheet | Charles River

چکیده
Charles River AccuPRO-ID®, the first practical proteotypic identification method, utilizes matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. For industries that are required to identify microorganisms on a regular basis, the ideal technology is one that is accurate, reproducible, fast and inexpensive. MALDI-TOF technology is less dependent on growth conditions than phenotypic methods, because it analyzes primarily ribosomal proteins, which are not differentially expressed. The Charles River Accugenix® group optimized MALDI-TOF for use in bacterial identification and backs the method with 16S sequencing technology, providing clients with results 98% of the time – an increase of 26% over the commercially available BioTyper. Charles River conducted two different studies to evaluate MALDI-TOF as a suitable identification method and to compare it to commercially-available methods of identification.

متن کاملStrain-level bacterial identification by CeO2-catalyzed MALDI-TOF MS fatty acid analysis and comparison to commercial protein-based methods
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has emerged as a rapid approach for clinical bacterial identification. However, current protein-based commercial bacterial ID methods fall short when differentiating closely related species/strains. To address this shortcoming, we employed CeO2-catalyzed fragmentation of lipids to produce fatty acids usi...
متن کاملTotal Laboratory Automation and Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization–Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry Improve Turnaround Times in the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory: a Retrospective Analysis
Technological advances have changed the practice of clinical microbiology. We implemented Bruker matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and BD Kiestra total laboratory automation (TLA) 4 and 3 years ago, respectively. To assess the impact of these new technologies, we compared turnaround times (TATs) for positive and negative urine cultures b...
متن کاملMALDI-TOF mass spectrometry proteomic based identification of clinical bacterial isolates
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Pathogenic bacteria often cause life threatening infections especially in immunocompromised individuals. Therefore, rapid and reliable species identification is essential for a successful treatment and disease management. We evaluated a rapid, proteomic based technique for identification of clinical bacterial isolates by protein profiling using matrix-assisted laser deso...
متن کاملComparison of MALDI-TOF MS, Housekeeping Gene Sequencing, and 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing for Identification of Aeromonas Clinical Isolates
PURPOSE The genus Aeromonas is a pathogen that is well known to cause severe clinical illnesses, ranging from gastroenteritis to sepsis. Accurate identification of A. hydrophila, A. caviae, and A. veronii is important for the care of patients. However, species identification remains difficult using conventional methods. The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of different methods of i...
