Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the presence of certain bacterial pathogens in fish from the Atlantic area of Macaronesia, focusing on their identification methods and health implications.
- - Two identification techniques, the traditional API method and the more advanced MALDI-TOF MS method, were compared, revealing a high level of agreement between them, especially in identifying certain bacterial genera.
- - Despite processing 59 samples, no targeted pathogens were found, which highlights the efficiency and accuracy of MALDI-TOF MS over the API technique, while also implying potential health risks from the identified bacteria.
