Abstract

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has been recently introduced to many diagnostic microbiological laboratories. Besides the identification of bacteria and fungi, that technique provides a potentially useful tool for the detection of antimicrobial resistance, especially of that conferred by β-lactamases. Here, we describe an assay allowing a detection of meropenem hydrolysis in clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp., and Acinetobacter baumannii using MALDI-TOF MS. This method is able to confirm carbapenemases within 3 h. The results are important for proper and fast intervention to limit the spread of carbapenemase-producing bacteria and provide information for appropriate initial therapy of the infections caused by these microbes.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 June 2015.
All research outputs
#4,545,459
of 22,766,595 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#1,314
of 13,090 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#65,657
of 352,895 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#102
of 996 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,766,595 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 80th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,090 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 352,895 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 996 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its contemporaries.
