Description

(Version 20230306)

Version 4 (20230306) of the RKI MALDI-ToF mass spectra database is the third update of the original database (version 20161027, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.163517). The RKI Database v.4 now contains a total of 11055 MALDI-ToF mass spectra from 1599 microbial strains of highly pathogenic (i.e. biosafety level 3, BSL-3) bacteria such as Bacillus anthracis, Brucella melitensis, Yersinia pestis, Burkholderia mallei / pseudomallei and Francisella tularensis as well as a selection of spectra of their close and distant relatives. The database can be used as a reference for the diagnosis of BSL-3 bacteria using proprietary and free software packages for MALDI-ToF MS-based microbial identification. The spectral data are provided as a zip archive (zenodo db 230306.zip) containing the original mass spectra in their native data format (Bruker Daltonics). Please refer to the pdf file (230306-ZENODO-Metadata.pdf) for information on cultivation conditions, sample preparation and details of the spectra acquisition. Please do not try to print this document (>1600 pages!).

Version 20230306 of the RKI database contains for the first time a file in btmsp format (230306_v4_RKI_DB_BSL3.btmsp). This file was generated using the MALDI Biotyper software (Bruker Daltonics) and contains a total of 1599 main spectra from the BSL-3 database in the proprietary data format of the MALDI Biotyper software. *.btmsp files can be imported and used for identification with this software solution. Please refer to the manufacturer's manual for details on importing btmsp files

The pkf files (230306_ZENODO_30Peaks_0.75.pkf, 230306_ZENODO_45Peaks_0.75.pkf) represent two versions of the MS peak list data in a Matlab compatible format. The latter data can be imported into MicrobeMS, a free Matlab-based software solution developed at the RKI. MicrobeMS can be used for the identification of microorganisms by MALDI-ToF MS and is available at https://wiki.microbe-ms.com.

The RKI mass spectrometry database is updated regularly.
