| Abstract | Early and rapid identification of microorganisms is critical for reducing the mortality rate caused by bloodstream infections (BSIs). The accuracy and feasibility of directly identifying pathogens in positive blood cultures by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has been intensely confirmed. In this study, we combined density centrifugation and extra chemical lysis-extraction to develop an optimized method in the blood culture process, which significantly improved the effectiveness of direct identification by MALDI-TOF MS. The accuracy was evaluated by 2032 positive blood culture samples (115 species of microorganism). The overall MALDI-TOF MS based identification rate with scores ≥ 1.700 was 87.60%. 94.06% of gram-negative bacteria were identified consistently to the genus level, followed by anaerobes (93.33%), gram-positive bacteria (84.46%), and fungi (60.87%). This protocol could obtain results within 10-20 minutes at a cost of less than $0.1 per sample, which saved up to 24h in identifying 87.60% of the microorganism from positive blood cultures. This rapid and simplified protocol facilitates the direct identification of microorganism in positive blood cultures, and exhibits the advantages of cost-effective, time-saving, and easy-to-use. It could provide the causative organism of the patient to clinicians in time for targeted treatment and reduce mortality. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
