We evaluated the reliability of the Bruker Daltonik's MALDI Biotyper system in species-level identification of yeasts directly from blood culture bottles. Identification results were concordant with those of the conventional culture-based method for 95.9% of Candida albicans (187/195) and 86.5% of non-albicans Candida species (128/148). Results were available in 30 min (median), suggesting that this approach is a reliable, time-saving tool for routine identification of Candida species causing bloodstream infection.
我们评估了 Bruker Daltonik 的 MALDI Biotyper 系统在直接从血培养瓶中鉴定酵母菌种水平方面的可靠性。鉴定结果与传统基于培养的方法一致,对于 95.9%的白色念珠菌(187/195)和 86.5%的非白色念珠菌属酵母菌(128/148)。结果在 30 分钟(中位数)内可用,表明这种方法是一种可靠的、节省时间的用于常规鉴定引起血流感染的念珠菌的工具。
