Matrix  Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization (MALDI) combined with flight time detector (TOF = Time of Flight). The spectrophotometric method for accurate identification of bacteria, fungi and yeasts isolated from biological material, animals, food and environmental samples. It is a very efficient, fast and robust method for microbiological laboratories.

The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of an antibiotic is the lowest concentration of the antimicrobial chemical that inhibits the visible growth of the microorganism after 24 hours of incubation.

Multiplex polymerase chain reaction is a type of PCR  when DNA in samples is amplified using multiple primers and a temperature-mediated DNA polymerase in a thermal cycler. The method is used to amplify several different DNA sequences simultaneously (as if performing many separate PCR reactions all together in one reaction).
