Implementation of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry to Identify Fungi From the Indoor Environment as an Added Value to the Classical Morphology-Based Identification Tool
available in an in-house created reference database containing over 1,700 strains from the BCCM / IHEM fungal collection. Results: A total of 149 isolates including 18 yeasts and 131 filamentous fungi were ...
Identification of the Trichophyton mentagrophytes complex species using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
Institute of Public Health, Brussels, Belgium (BCCM ™/ IHEM) collection were used to challenge this database; 89% of the tested strains (not used as reference strains in the database) could readily be ...
Genetic re-identification and antifungal susceptibility testing of Aspergillus section Nigri strains of the BCCM/IHEM collection.
different species are accepted. In this study we (re-) identified 123 strains of the Aspergillus niger group of the BCCM / IHEM collection to check for the presence of species other than A. niger in both ...
Screening of strains of the Candida parapsilosis group of the BCCM/IHEM collection by MALDI-TOF MS.
sixty-three strains stored as Candida parapsilosis in the BCCM / IHEM collection were reidentified based on internal transcribed spacer sequencing: 92% were identified as true C. parapsilosis, while 4.3% and 3% ...
