摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for separating, characterizing and/or identifying microorganisms in a test sample. The method of the invention comprises an optional lysis step for lysing non-microorganism cells that may be present in a test sample, followed by a subsequent separation step. The method may be useful for the separation, characterization and/or identification of microorganisms from complex samples such as blood-containing culture media. The invention further provides for spectroscopic interrogation of the separated microorganism sample to produce measurements of the microorganism and characterizing and/or identifying the microorganism in the sample using said spectroscopic measurements.
摘要:
A method is described to separate, characterize and/or identify microorganisms in a test sample. Said method comprises the steps of (i) lysing non-microorganism cells that might be present in the sample, (ii) separating the microorganisms as a pellet in the sample post-lysing non-microorganism cells, (iii) interrogating the pellet containing microorganisms by mass spectrometry to produce mass spectra of microorganisms, and (iv) characterizing and/or identifying microorganisms in the sample. The method may be used in characterizing/identifying microorganisms in complex samples, e.g., blood containing culture media.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method and system for monitoring, detecting, and/or characterizing a biological particle that may be present in a sample whereby the method may be accomplished non-invasively by utilizing a time-dependent spectroscopic technique to obtain at least two measurements of a growth composition comprising a sample and correlating said measurements for the detection and/or characterization of a biological particle, that may be present in the sample.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method and system for monitoring, detecting, and/or characterizing a biological particle that may be present in a sample. The method may be accomplished in a sealed container by utilizing a first step time-dependent spectroscopic technique to obtain at least two measurements of a growth composition comprising a sample and correlating said measurements for the detection and/or characterization of a biological particle that may be present in the sample. The method further provides for a subsequent step for the separation, characterizion and/or identification of the microorganisms in the sealed container.
