Rigorous and Sophisticated Data Analysis Assures Accuracy Meaning of score values The spectrum of the unknown test organism, acquired through the MALDI Biotyper CA System Software, is elec- tronically transformed into the peak list. Using a biostatistical algorithm, this peak list is compared to reference peak lists of organisms in the reference database and a log(score) value between 0.00 and 3.00 The higher the log(score) value, the higher the degree of similarity to a given organism in the reference FDA-cleared database. A log(score) value of > 2.00 can be considered an excellent probabi-...
