Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry analysis of Escherichia coli categories.

چکیده
The mass profiles of cell-free extracts of 180 commensal and pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli were determined by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS). While some peaks were highly conserved in all E. coli, several peaks occurred only in some strains, showing heterogeneity among them. We did not detect strain-specific peaks for any of the E. coli categories tested. However, review of the fully conserved and the variable peaks suggested that MALDI-TOF MS has the potential to distinguish commensal and uropathogenic E. coli strains. Additionally, eight Shigella sonnei isolates were tested and found to be indistinguishable from E. coli by MALDI-TOF MS under the test conditions.

A multidimensional chromatographic method has been applied for the differential analysis of proteins from different strains of Escherichia coli bacteria. Proteins are separated in the first dimension using chromatofocusing (CF) and further separated by nonporous reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (NPS-RP-HPLC) in the second dimension. A 2-dimensional (2-D) expression map of b...

Epidemiologically linked clusters are confirmed by typing strains with molecular typing such as pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). We compared six extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing E. coli of a PFGE-related cluster with Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass-spectrometry based typing that confirmed relatedness faster and more cost-effective, but as reliable ...
