Abstract

Aim: Proof-of-concept study, highlighting the clinical diagnostic ability of FT-IR compared with MALDI-TOF MS, combined with WGS. Materials & methods: 104 pathogenic isolates of Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes and Staphylococcus aureus were analyzed. Results: Overall prediction accuracy was 99.6% in FT-IR and 95.8% in MALDI-TOF-MS. Analysis of N. meningitidis serogroups was superior in FT-IR compared with MALDI-TOF-MS. Phylogenetic relationship of S. pyogenes was similar by FT-IR and WGS, but not S. aureus or S. pneumoniae. Clinical severity was associated with the zinc ABC transporter and DNA repair genes in S. pneumoniae and cell wall proteins (biofilm formation, antibiotic and complement permeability) in S. aureus via WGS. Conclusion: FT-IR warrants further clinical evaluation as a promising diagnostic tool.
