Identification of molecularly defined Staphylococcus aureus strains using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry and the Biotyper 2.0 database
TL;DR: This first study where the Biotyper 2.0 database has been applied for bacterial identification in a local strain collection of molecularly defined Staphylococcus aureus shows that the accuracy of the MALDI-TOF MS-based S. a Aureus identification approach was clearly faster than more time-consuming methods such as a molecular identification approach.

Abstract: Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has recently been introduced for bacterial identification. To our knowledge, this is the first study where the Biotyper 2.0 database (Bruker Daltonics) has been applied for bacterial identification in a local strain collection of molecularly defined Staphylococcus aureus. We showed that the accuracy of the Biotyper 2.0-based identification for 602 molecularly defined strains of S. aureus, irrespective of meticillin resistance, was equivalent to that of the molecularly defined reference even at a score cut-off value of 2. Also, 412 isolates of 20 different species of non-S. aureus staphylococci were all correctly identified to species level compared to the molecularly defined reference. Moreover, the MALDI-TOF MS-based S. aureus identification approach was clearly faster than more time-consuming methods such as a molecular identification approach.

Evaluation of MALDI-ToF as a method for the identification of bacteria in the veterinary diagnostic laboratory
Luke P. Randall,Fabrizio Lemma,Mark S. Koylass,Jon Rogers,Roger D. Ayling,Danny Worth,Monika Klita,Andrew Steventon,Kirsty Line,Peter Wragg,Jakub Muchowski,Markus Kostrzewa,Adrian M. Whatmore +12 more
TL;DR: MALDI-ToF was shown to be a rapid and reliable method to identify veterinary bacteria and non-16S rDNA methods agreed to species-level and species/genus-level agreement in the absence of 16S r DNA as a gold standard.

Real-time comparative evaluation of bioMerieux VITEK MS versus Bruker Microflex MS, two matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry systems, for identification of clinically significant bacteria
TL;DR: Two MALDI-TOF MS-based, Bruker Microflex MS (BMS) and VITEK MS (VMS) systems were rapid and proved to be consistently accurate for producing bacterial identification in a fraction of time it takes for identification by CPS.

TL;DR: The complete sequence of rpoB, the gene encoding the beta subunit of RNA polymerase was determined for Staphylococcus saccharolyticus, Staphlyococcus lugdunensis, S taphylitis caprae, and Staphilococcus intermedius and partial sequences were obtained and partial relationships inferred were in agreement with those previously derived from DNA-DNA hybridization studies and analyses of 16S ribosomal DNA gene sequences.
