Interpretive Criteria for Identification of Bacteria and Fungi by DNA Target Sequencing; Approved Guideline ; MM18AE
standard by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, 01/01/2008
Description
The information presented in this document is intended for use with molecular diagnostic testing procedures published in CLSIguideline MM3 and CLSI/NCCLS guideline MM9. The guidelines contain information about the development, evaluation, andapplication of nucleic acid-based testing for infectious diseases and chemistries for diagnostic laboratories.Laboratories often receive clinical isolates for bacterial and fungal identification that have ambiguous biochemical profiles byconventional testing.
The identification of microorganisms historically has relied on phenotypic methods. Because of the growingmicrobial diversity with emergence of common pathogens having rare or unique phenotypic characteristics and new pathogenicmicroorganisms with poorly defined phenotypes, conventional methods often cannot fully characterize bacterial or fungalisolates, and laboratories are now relying on broad-range DNA sequencing for microorganism identification. The informationhere represents the most current information for microbial classification by DNA target sequencing, with particular emphasis oninterpretation and reporting results.
