This study compared the accuracy of a new MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry system, ASTA MicroIDSys system, with that of MALDI Biotyper system for the identification of reference and clinical bacterial and yeast strains. The identification accuracy of the 2 systems was compared using a total of 406 strains comprising 142 aerobic and 180 anaerobic bacterial strains and 84 yeast strains. The genus and species identification rates were 98.0% and 89.4% using MicroIDSys and 96.1% and 89.4% using Biotyper, respectively. The species identification rates of MicroIDSys and Biotyper for aerobic bacteria were 93.0% and 97.2%, respectively, and those for anaerobic bacteria were 85.6% and 81.7%, respectively. The accuracy of yeast identification at the species level was 91.7% using MicroIDSys and 92.9% using Biotyper. These findings indicate that MicroIDSys could be useful for the accurate identification of bacteria and yeast in clinical microbiology laboratories.
本研究比较了一种新的 MALDI-TOF 质谱系统,ASTA MicroIDSys 系统,与 MALDI Biotyper 系统在鉴定参考和临床细菌和酵母菌株方面的准确性。使用总共 406 株菌株比较了这 2 个系统的鉴定准确性,其中包括 142 株需氧菌和 180 株厌氧菌以及 84 株酵母菌株。MicroIDSys 的属和种鉴定率分别为 98.0%和 89.4%,Biotyper 分别为 96.1%和 89.4%。MicroIDSys 和 Biotyper 对需氧菌的种鉴定率分别为 93.0%和 97.2%,对厌氧菌的种鉴定率分别为 85.6%和 81.7%。MicroIDSys 对酵母种水平的鉴定准确性为 91.7%,Biotyper 为 92.9%。这些发现表明 MicroIDSys 可用于临床微生物学实验室中细菌和酵母的准确鉴定。
