| Abstract | |
We evaluated the performance of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-ToF) for identification of Bcc species compared with that of recA sequencing. MALDI-ToF was able of identifying 100% of Bcc isolates at the genus level, but 23.1% of Bcc isolates tested were not correctly identified at the species level. The misidentification occurred most frequently with Burkholderia contaminans (100%) and B. cepacia (33.3%). (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. (AU) | |
