Multicentre study on the reproducibility of MALDI-TOF MS for nontuberculous mycobacteria identification.
extraction procedures. Few multicentre studies on the reproducibility of MALDI- TOF have been performed so far, none on mycobacteria. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of MALDI- TOF for ...
Strong increase of true and false positive mycobacterial cultures sent to the National Reference Centre in Belgium, 2007 to 2016.
observational study investigated the numbers of analyses at the NRC and false positive cultures (interpreted as containing mycobacteria at referring clinical laboratories, but with no mycobacterial DNA detected ...
