MALDI-TOF-mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a powerful technique for the
routine identification of microorganisms in clinical microbiology laboratories allowing
an easier and faster diagnosis than conventional phenotypic and molecular methods.
We have evaluated the suitability of MALDI-TOF for the rapid identification of
Lactococcus garvieae the etiological agent of lactococcosis, a septicemic infection
affecting different wild and farmed fish species, and recognized also as an
opportunistic emerging human pathogen
