Performance Evaluation of the MBT STAR®-Carba IVD Assay for the Detection of Carbapenemases With MALDI-TOF MS

Performance Evaluation of the MBT STAR®-Carba IVD Assay for the Detection of Carbapenemases With MALDI-TOF MS

Objectives: The increasing rate of carbapenem resistance in Gram-negative bacteria is a major public health problem and rapid detection is essential for infection management. We evaluated the performances of the MBT STAR®-Carba IVD assay (Bruker Daltonics) to detect carbapenemase-producing organisms...
