Abstract

We evaluated the performance of an immunochromatographic assay (PBP2a Culture Colony Test - Alere™), detecting protein-binding penicillin 2a on staphylococci primary isolates in only 6minutes. The assay is highly sensitive for the direct detection of MRSA on various culture media whereas it requires cefoxitin induction for methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci., (Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc.

Abstract

Using 30 clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus representative of the most prevalent clones circulating in France, the performance of the Alere™ PBP2a Culture Colony Test (CCT) and the Slidex(®) MRSA detection kit (SMD) were compared in 5 different labs. CCT demonstrated better performance and was easier to conduct in routine., (Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
