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

Gram-Positive Cocci³

February 2012

Subgroup analysis was performed for the staphylococci, streptococci and enterococci and the "related genera."  Staphylococci, streptococci and enterococci subjected to extraction yielded a genus-level identification in 98% of cases and a species-level identification in 79% of cases. Staphylococci, streptococci, and enterococci tested directly from colonies yielded a genus-level identification in 63% of cases and a species-level identification in 26% of cases. The "related genera" subjected to extraction yielded a genus-level identification in 88% of cases and a species-level identification in 4% of cases. The "related genera" tested directly yielded a genus-level identification in 40% of cases and a species-level identification in 5% of cases.
