Sumario:The global threat of numerous infectious diseases creates a great need to develop new diagnostic methods to facilitate the appropriate prescription of antimicrobial therapy. More recently, the possibility of using bacterial lipidome analysis via laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) as useful diagnostic tool for microbial identification and rapid drug susceptibility has received particular attention because lipids are present in large quantities and can be easily extracted similar to ribosomal proteins. Therefore, the main goal of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of two different LDI techniques—matrix-assisted (MALDI) and surface-assisted (SALDI) approaches—in the classification of the closely related Escherichia coli strains under cefotaxime addition. Bacterial lipids profiles obtained by using the MALDI technique with different matrices as well as silver nanoparticle (AgNP) targets fabricated using the chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) of different AgNP sizes were analyzed by the means of different multivariate statistical methods such as principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), sparse partial least squares discriminant analysis (sPLS-DA), and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The analysis showed that the MALDI classification of strains was hampered by interference from matrix-derived ions. In contrast, the lipid profiles generated by the SALDI technique had lower background noise and more signals associated with the sample, allowing E. coli to be successfully classified into cefotaxime-resistant and cefotaxime-sensitive strains, regardless of the size of the AgNPs. AgNP substrates obtained using the CVD method were used for the first time for distinguishing closely related bacterial strains based on their lipidomic profiles and demonstrate high potential as a future diagnostic tool for the detection of antibiotic susceptibility.
