Bacterial Identification by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry

Bacterial Identification by Mass Spectrometry

February 2012

The number of publications on microbial identification by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry has skyrocketed over the last couple of years because of high identification rates combined with fast turnover time and low costs for consumables compared with conventional methods. This new technology has performed excellently; some studies have even shown that matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry outperforms conventional identification assays.
