Abstract:
:In our current study we were identifying 26 bacterial isolates using a SCIEX 5800 TOF/TOF MALDI instrument and an external database. The results were compared with the results of a Vitek® MS system and in case of discrepancies at the species level 16s rRNA sequencing was performed for further verification.
