Abstract:"This study aimed to assess the performance of our in-house method for rapid direct bacterial identification (ID) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) using a positive blood culture (BC) broth. For Gram-negative bacteria, 4 mL of BC broth was aspirated and passed through a Sartorius Minisart syringe filter with a pore size of 5 microm. The filtrate was then centrifuged and washed. A small volume of the pellet was used for ID, using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, and for AST, using automated broth microdilution. For Gram-positive cocci, 4 mL of BC broth was passed through the Minisart syringe filter. Then, 4 mL of sterile distilled water was injected in the direction opposite to that of the filtration to collect the bacterial residue trapped in the filter. Compared with the conventional method performed with pure colonies on agar plates, 94.0% (234/249) were correctly identified using the in-house method, with rates of 91.4% (127/139) and 97.3% (107/110) for Gram-positive and Gram-negative isolates, respectively. Of 234 correctly identified isolates, 230 were assessed by AST. Categorical agreement and essential agreement were 93.3% and 94.5%, respectively, with a minor error rate of 3.8%, a major error rate of 3.4%, and a very major error rate of 1.6%. Our in-house preparation method showed good performance in rapid direct ID and AST using positive BC broths compared to the conventional method. This simple method can shorten the conventional turnaround time for ID and AST by at least 1 day, potentially contributing to better patient management"
