Evaluation of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time-of-flight mass spectrometry for typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and a review of the literature

We present the typing results (compared with multilocus sequence typing) of 290 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates by MALDI-TOFMS and a review of the literature about the application of MALDI-TOFMS on the molecular typing of other pathogens.
