Abstract

[Abstract] In this study MALDI-TOF MS was evaluated in the identification of anaerobic bacteria comparing it with Rapid ID 32A system. Discrepancies were solved by 16S r-RNA gene sequencing. At the species level MALDI-TOF MS identified 94.82% and Rapid ID 32A 86.67%, showing the superiority of MALDI-TOF MS to conventional methods.
