APPLICATION OF MALDI-TOF MASS SPECTOMETRY TO BRUCELLA SPP. IDENTIFICATION
Abstract
The project of refillable electronic database of mass spectrometric protein profiles of brucellosis strains in the environment of the program MALDI Biotyper v 3.0 (Bruker Daltonics, USA) has been developed. On the basis of analysis of representative mass spectra of 39 Brucella strains, 12 possible genus-specific fragments in the mass range 2000 - 20000 Da were identified.
