Evaluation of VITEK 2, MicroScan, and Phoenix for identification of clinical isolates and reference strains.

Abstract:

:To compare the identification accuracies of VITEK 2 (bioMérieux), MicroScan (Siemens Healthcare), and Phoenix (Becton Dickinson), microbial identification was performed on 160 clinical isolates and 50 reference strains on each of these 3 systems, using the appropriate identification kit provided by each system. Of the 142 clinical isolates that were identified at the species level, VITEK 2, MicroScan, and Phoenix correctly identified 93.7%, 82.4%, and 93.0%, and incorrectly identified 2.1%, 7.0%, and 0%, respectively. In the reference strain tests, VITEK 2, MicroScan, and Phoenix correctly identified 55.3%, 54.4%, and 78.0% of the reference strains at the species level and incorrectly identified 10.6%, 13.0%, and 6.0% of the reference strains, respectively. In conclusion, the identification rate of VITEK 2, Phoenix, and MicroScan was high or acceptable on clinical isolates. Phoenix showed a significantly higher performance than VITEK 2 or MicroScan in identifying the reference strains.
