Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical specimens by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
1 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To develop a matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) approach to identify Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and differentiate methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) from methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA). METHODS: A total of 100 S. aureus strains isolated from clinical specimens and farm workers were collected and analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS. And...
