We directly tested 484 organisms from clinical ( = 310) and simulated ( = 174) positive blood cultures using the NG-Test Carba 5 assay for carbapenemase-producing detection. The assay identified all but 4 of the KPC (170/171), OXA-48-like (22/22), VIM (19/21), and NDM (14/15) producers with no false positives. Among the clinical organisms tested, 122 of 123 KPC, 1 of 1 OXA-48-like, and 1 of 2 VIM producers were detected by the assay. Some VIM and NDM producers yielded scant but still-readable bands with the assay. No organisms produced the IMPs that the assay was designed to detect.
我们使用 NG-Test Carba 5 检测试剂盒直接对 484 株来自临床( = 310)和模拟( = 174)阳性血培养物的微生物进行了检测,以检测产碳青霉烯酶的情况。该检测试剂盒鉴定出了除 4 株(KPC 的 170/171、OXA-48 样的 22/22、VIM 的 19/21 和 NDM 的 14/15)外的所有产碳青霉烯酶的微生物,没有假阳性。在检测的临床微生物中,123 株 KPC 中有 122 株、1 株 OXA-48 样、2 株 VIM 中有 1 株被该检测试剂盒检测到。一些 VIM 和 NDM 产酶菌的条带虽然稀疏,但仍可读。该检测试剂盒没有检测到设计用来检测的 IMP 产酶菌。
