ABSTRACT
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometryï¼ MALDI-TOF MSï¼ is a bacterial typing tool that was approved as a medical device in 2011. However, external accuracy control examination of bacterial typing using mass spectrometry is still only performed on a small scale. In this study, E. faecium and S. maltophilia were selected and tested according to established procedures using Score Values at 228 institutions. The Score Values for MALDI Biotyper were 2.43±0.08 for E. faecium and 2.38±0.08 for S. maltophilia; and those for VITEK MS/PRIME were 99.9±0.0 for E. faecium and S. maltophilia. These results suggest that it is useful to evaluate external accuracy control with Score Values using the procedures we have developed.
