MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry as a tool for differentiation of invasive and noninvasive<i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i>isolates
5 Jun 2008
Abstract excerpt
A novel mass spectral fingerprinting and proteomics approach using MALDI-TOF MS was applied to detect and identify protein biomarkers of group A Streptococcus (GAS) strains. Streptococcus pyogenes ATCC 700294 genome strain was compared with eight GAS clinical isolates to explore the ability of MALDI-TOF MS to differentiate isolates. Reference strains of other bacterial species were also analyzed and compared with...
