MALDI-TOF MS, a useful instrument for differentiating metallo-β -lactamases in Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas spp.
Abstract
We have evaluated a matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) method for the identification of carbapenemases and for distinguishing metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). A total of 49 noncarbapenemase-producing and 14 carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical strains, previously characterized by PCR, were included in the study. With MALDI-TOF MS, the presence of...
