Abstract:
Identification of the causative pathogen in infectious diseases is important for surveillance and to guide treatment. In low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), conventional culture and identification methods, including biochemical methods, are reference-standard. Biochemical methods can lack sensitivity and specificity and have slow turnaround times, causing delays in definitive therapy. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI–TOF MS) is a rapid and accurate diagnostic method. Most studies comparing MALDI–TOF MS and biochemical methods are from hig

Abstract Introduction/Objective Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/ time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) direct from positive blood culture bottles has facilitated drastic drops in turn-around times for microorganism identification but has been poorly studied for anaerobes. We investigated the ability of MALDI-TOF to provide early anaerobe identification at 4 hours and 18-24 hours of growth on agar from anaerobic blood culture bottles. Additionally, we reviewed medical records of such patients to ascertain impact of early identification on antimicrobial treatment. Methods O

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) has revolutionized the identification of clinical bacterial and yeast isolates. However, data describing the reproducibility of MALDI-TOF MS for microbial identification are scarce. In this study, we show that MALDI-TOF MS-based microbial identification is highly reproducible and can tolerate numerous variables, including differences in testing environments, instruments, operators, reagent lots, and sample positioning patterns. Finally, we reveal that samples of bacterial and yeast isolates prepared f

Abstract:
Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has gained popularity in recent years for rapid bacterial identification, mostly at the genus or species level. In this study, a rapid method to identify the Escherichia coli flagellar antigen (H antigen) at the subspecies level was developed using a MALDI-TOF MS platform with high specificity and sensitivity. Flagella were trapped on a filter membrane, and on-filter trypsin digestion was performed. The tryptic digests of each flagellin then were collected and analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS through peptide ma

Abstract:
An emerging application of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry is the analysis of low molecular weight (LMW) compounds, often via coupled liquid chromatography — MALDI-MS methods. However, in many cases, the low molecular weight region of MALDI mass spectra is obscured by the presence of signals originating from the matrix, suggesting that the development of tethered MALDI matrixes may be required to optimize MS performance for such compounds. To gain insight into potential sites for covalent attachment of MALDI matrixes, we have systematically investigated th

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) from the surface of nanosized multimolecular structures based on lanthanum stearate monolayers (FLa) has been studied. The presence of FLa on the surface of MALDI target was confirmed experimentally by laser desorption of lanthanum-containing organic ions. MALDI target functionalization with FLa is shown to significantly increase the yield of target peptide ions, with the optimum being achieved at a film thickness of about 6 monolayers. An approach is proposed in a "lab-on-a-plate" format, which allows specific extraction of

Mass spectrometry (MS) techniques have spear‒headed the field of proteomics. Recently, MS has been used to structurally analyse carbohydrates. The heparin/heparan sulfate‒like glycosaminoglycans (HLGAGs) present a special set of difficulties for structural analysis because they are highly sulfated and heterogeneous. We have used a matrix‒assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI‒MS) technique in which heparin fragments are non‒covalently bound to basic peptides of a known mass, so as to limit in‒source desulfation and hence afford an accurate mass.

Abstract BACKGROUND Free light chain (FLC) quantification is the most analytically sensitive blood-based method commercially available to diagnose and monitor patients with plasma cell disorders (PCDs). However, instead of directly detecting monoclonal FLCs (mFLCs), FLC assays indirectly assess clonality based on quantifying κ and λ FLCs and determination of the к/λ FLC ratio. Often an abnormal FLC ratio is the only indication of a PCD, and confirmation by a direct method increases diagnostic confidence. The aim of this study was to develop an analytically sensitive method for direct detection
