MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry-Based Optochin Susceptibility Testing for Differentiation of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> from other <i>Streptococcus mitis</i> Group Streptococci

MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry-Based Optochin Susceptibility Testing for Differentiation of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> from other <i>Streptococcus mitis</i> Group Streptococci

Discrimination of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> from other <i>Streptococcus mitis</i> group (SMG) species is still challenging but very important due to their different pathogenic potential. In this study, we aimed to develop a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization ti...
