MALDI-TOF for the identification of Mycobacteria and their drug resistance profiles
desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI- TOF MS) has been increasingly introduced as a valuable method for the identification of bacteria and yeast1. This technique, which generates mass ...
Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry for Combined Species Identification and Drug Sensitivity Testing in Mycobacteria.
