摘要
This study was applied to evaluate the usefulness of a high‐throughput sample preparation protocol prior to the application of quantitative real‐time PCR (qPCR) for the early diagnosis of bloodstream and pyogenic infections in humans and animals compared to matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF MS) and classical culture. Saponin‐mediated selective host cell lysis combined with DNase‐1 was applied for processing of whole blood and pus clinical samples collected from suspected cases of septicaemia and pyogenic infections in humans and animals. The pre‐PCR processing strategy enabled the recovery of microbial cells with no changes in their colony forming units immediately after the addition of saponin. DNase‐1 was efficient for removing the DNAs from the host cells as well as dead cells with damaged cell membranes. The metagenomic qPCR and MALDI‐TOF MS could identify the bacterial community of sepsis at species level with a concordance of 97·37% unlike the conventional culture. According to qPCR results, Staphylococcus aureus (24·24%) was predominated in animal pyogenic infections, whereas Klebsiella pneumonia (31·81%) was commonly detected in neonatal sepsis. Saponin combined with DNase‐1 allowed the efficient recovery of microbial DNA from blood and pus samples in sepsis using qPCR assay. Metagenomic qPCR could identify a broad range of bacteria directly from blood and pus with more sensitivity, higher discriminatory power and shorter turnaround time than those using MALDI‐TOF MS and conventional culture. This might allow a timely administration of a prompt treatment.
