Identification of Weissella species by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry
Although some Weissella species play beneficial roles in food fermentation and in probiotic products, others such as W. confusa are emerging Gram-positive pathogens in immunocompromised hosts. Weissella species are difficult to identify by conventional biochemical methods and commercial automated sy...
