An improved simple method for the identification of Mycobacteria by MALDI-TOF MS (Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption- Ionization mass spectrometry)
Abstract The aim of this study was to establish a simple method for the rapid identification of Mycobacteria species by MALDI-TOF (Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Time of Flight Mass spectrometry) using the Bruker MALDI-TOF Biotyper system (Bruker Daltonik, Bremen, Germany).
