Sternal wound infection caused by Gordonia bronchialis: identification by MALDI-TOF MS
INTRODUCTION Gordonia spp. infections are uncommon. However, a few clinical cases have been reported in the literature, particularly those involving immunocompromised hosts. Advanced microbiology diagnosis techniques, such as matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight MS (MALDI-TOF MS), have been recently introduced in clinical microbiology laboratories in order to improve micro...
متن کاملSternal Osteomyelitis Caused by Gordonia bronchialis after Open-Heart Surgery
We report the case of a deep sternal wound infection with sternal osteomyelitis caused by Gordonia bronchialis after open-heart surgery. The isolate was identified as a G. bronchialis by 16S rRNA and hsp65 gene sequencing, having initially been misidentified as a Rhodococcus by a commercial phenotypic identification system.

متن کاملDossier MALDI - TOF ■ Oligonucleotide analysis by MALDI - MS
Matrix-assisted laser desorption (MALDI) time-offlight (TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) has been successfully used for oligonucleotide sequence confirmation by mass analysis of fragments generated by concentration-dependent exonuclease digestion. This approach is particularly well-suited to the analysis of synthetic DNA due to the relatively short length of the DNA strands. Additionally, an importa...
