Factors affecting the quality and reproducibility of MALDI-TOF MS identification for human Capnocytophaga species

Abstract excerpt

Reproducibility and quality of MALDI-TOF MS spectra are critical in the identification process, however, information on the factors affecting the identification scores are scarce. Here, we studied the influence of various factors during the identification process of human oral Capnocytophaga species. The influence of two incubation times, plate-spotting reproducibility of two examiners, extraction technique,...
