Use of the MicroSeq 500 16S rRNA Gene-Based Sequencing for Identification of Bacterial Isolates That Commercial Automated Systems Failed To Identify Correctly

Abstract: Reliable automated identification and susceptibility testing of clinically relevant bacteria is an essential routine for microbiology laboratories, thus improving patient care. Examples of automated identification systems include the Phoenix (Becton Dickinson) and the VITEK 2 (bioMérieux). However, more and more frequently, microbiologists must isolate "difficult" strains that automated systems often fail to identify. An alternative approach could be the genetic identification of isolates; this is based on 16S… Show more

“…Furthermore, genetically diverse Enterobacteriaceae species can yield similar phenotypic profiles, resulting in poor discrimination between related species (Garcia-Garrote et al 2000;Hawkey 2006). In this context, genotypic identification may be preferable as this approach is faster and more accurate (e.g., Adékambi et al 2009;Fontana et al 2005;Jonas et al 2004 …”

“…Conventional phenotypic identification of anaerobic bacteria to the species level can be difficult and laborious in the clinical microbiology laboratory. Commercial phenotypic systems like the Rapid ID 32A or Vitek 2 ANC card (bioMérieux, Marcy-l'Etoile, France) are faster but limited by the taxa included in the system database and, in most cases, only reliable to the genus level (6,8,11,12,14). In the last few years, the use of 16S rRNA gene sequencing as an alternative method for species identification has increased, while the time and costs (Ϸ$35 to $40) have been reduced (7,8,14,15).…”

The method has been applied for anaerobic bacteria, including isolates from blood cultures, in some studies but not in a routine prospective design (8,10,15,16).…”
