Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing by stimulated Raman scattering metabolic imaging and morphological deformation of bacteria
Analytica Chimica Acta(2021)
摘要
Methods for rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) are urgently needed to address the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance. Here, we report a new method based on stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy, which measures both the metabolic activity and the morphological deformation of bacteria to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility of β-lactam antibiotics rapidly. In this approach, we quantify single bacteria's metabolic activity by the carbon-deuterium (C−D) bond concentrations in bacteria after D2O incubation. In the meantime, bacterial morphological deformation caused by β-lactam antibiotics is also measured. With these two quantifiable markers, we develop an evaluation method to perform AST of cefotaxime on 103 E. coli strains. Our method achieved a 93.2% categorical agreement and a 93.2% essential agreement with the standard reference method.
