Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria infections are a major public health problem in current society. Rapid and reliable identification of these pathogens can help avoid the misuse of antibiotics and enable precision therapy. In this study, we present a large-spot confocal Raman system based on fiber array (LSCR-FA) for the in situ detection of microbial colonies on agar plates. This method can alleviate the problem of spatial heterogeneity of colonies to a certain extent and is fast and high-throughput. Additionally, we also applied machine learning algorithms with 5-fold cross-validation to analyze colony Raman spectral data and classify seven different pathogenic bacteria. Among them, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) achieved a high accuracy of 98.74 %. The results of the study demonstrate that the mentioned LSCR-FA system combined with machine learning algorithms provides a new, fast, and effective strategy for the identification of pathogenic bacteria and precise clinical treatment.
期刊介绍:
Talanta provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, short communications, and critical reviews in all branches of pure and applied analytical chemistry. Papers are evaluated based on established guidelines, including the fundamental nature of the study, scientific novelty, substantial improvement or advantage over existing technology or methods, and demonstrated analytical applicability. Original research papers on fundamental studies, and on novel sensor and instrumentation developments, are encouraged. Novel or improved applications in areas such as clinical and biological chemistry, environmental analysis, geochemistry, materials science and engineering, and analytical platforms for omics development are welcome.
Analytical performance of methods should be determined, including interference and matrix effects, and methods should be validated by comparison with a standard method, or analysis of a certified reference material. Simple spiking recoveries may not be sufficient. The developed method should especially comprise information on selectivity, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, and reliability. However, applying official validation or robustness studies to a routine method or technique does not necessarily constitute novelty. Proper statistical treatment of the data should be provided. Relevant literature should be cited, including related publications by the authors, and authors should discuss how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.
