Abstract Carbapenem resistant (CRE) and carbapenemase producing Enterobacterales (CPE) in particular, represent a major threat for healthcare systems worldwide. Rapid, reliable, and easy to perform assays are required to enable targeted and effective therapy. MALDI-TOF MS based carbapenemase diagnostics has potential advantages over molecular and phenotypic sensitivity tests, especially in terms of time to result. So far, only one mass spectrometry (MS)-based carbapenemase test system is commercially available for routine use. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of the established system to a novel MS-based test to identify CPE isolates. Forty consecutive CRE isolates (70% CPEs) were pre-screened for carbapenemase activity by routine laboratory methods. Isolates then were tested using the to date only IVD CE certified MALDI-TOF MS carbapenemase detection assay (MBT STAR-Carba IVD Kit; Bruker Daltonics) and a novel test designed for the recently launched EXS2600 MALDI-TOF MS system (Carbapenemase Activity Kit; Zybio). Valid results were obtained for 93% and 85% isolates by the Bruker and the Zybio assay, respectively. Sensitivities, specificities, positive and negative predictive values were 92%, 91%, 96%, and 83% for the Bruker assay and 96%, 64%, 85%, and 88% for the Zybio assay. There are notable differences concerning the handling of the assays. In summary, both systems featured high sensitivities for the detection of carbapenemases, but the Bruker assay yielded less false-positive results. There are advantages and disadvantages concerning the handling for each system, but both proved to be suitable for the use in a routine laboratory. |
