We designed a pan-Microbial Detection Array (MDA) to detect all known viruses (including phage), bacteria, and plasmids. Family-specific probes were selected for all sequenced viral and bacterial comp
The objective of this study was to assess whether use of matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF), through improvements in identification time, reduces time to directed a
