The NG-Test CTX-M MULTI immunochromatographic assay has been developed to identify CTX-M-type β-lactamases in Enterobacterales, being the most widespread extended-spectrum β-lactamases. We showed here that the chromosomally-encoded ß-lactamases from Citrobacter farmeri and Citrobacter amalonaticus generated false-positive NG-Test CTX-M MULTI results, compromising the specificity of the test.
NG-Test CTX-M MULTI 免疫层析检测法已被开发用于鉴定肠杆菌科中的 CTX-M 型β-内酰胺酶,这是最广泛分布的超广谱β-内酰胺酶。我们在这里表明,柠檬酸杆菌和醋酸钙不动杆菌的染色体编码的β-内酰胺酶会产生假阳性的 NG-Test CTX-M MULTI 检测结果,从而影响检测的特异性。
