Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry for the identification of clinically relevant bacteria.

BACKGROUND: Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) allows rapid and reliable identification of microorganisms, particularly clinically important pathogens. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We compared the identification efficiency of MALDI-TOF MS w...
