Fungi Library MALDI Biotypet* Innovation with Integrityj

Mass spectrometry has revolutionized the identification of microorganisms within the past several years, setting new standards in speed and reliability. But even in these advanced times of microbial mass spectrometry, the identification of molds and multicellular fungi still persists as one of the most challenging aspects of microbiology. This can be mainly attributed to the effects of culture conditions. Bruker has therefore developed a cultivation method, a standard preparation method, and the Filamentous Fungi library to facilitate the identification of these microorganism groups....

Daily Routine Workflow – Analysis Possible Direct from Agar If a front mycelium is clearly visible, as in this example, and can be harvested, then it is possible to sample directly from the agar and, using the simple ethanol extraction method, good results can usually be obtained for most of the samples without the need for liquid cultivation. Typical MALDI Biotyper mass spectra Reference (broth cultivation) Aspergillus flavus In cases were direct harvesting is difficult, the liquid cultivation method should be used. Sample (direct harvesting) Top spectrum is achieved after liquid...

“The identification of multicellular fungi to the species level is one of the most challenging tasks of many microbiological laboratories in medicine, hygiene as well as food industries. In cooperation with Bruker‘s dedicated microbiology team we worked as part of an international group of fungi experts on the identification of filamentous fungi using the MALDI Biotyper approach. Based on Bruker‘s existing development on fungi sample preparation procedure, we contributed, established and validated a reference library of a large panel of the most important fungal strains. Our common efforts...
