Comparison of two multiplex immunochromatographic assays for the rapid detection of major carbapenemases in Enterobacterales.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:Two commercially available lateral flow immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) for detection of the major carbapenemases were prospectively assessed for the detection of carbapenemases in Enterobacterales: RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. (Coris BioConcept) and NG-Test CARBA 5 (NG Biotech). METHODS:These two assays were performed prospectively on consecutive Enterobacterales suspected of producing a carbapenemase that were referred to the Belgian National Reference Center for Monitoring Antimicrobial Resistance in Gram-Negative Bacteria between March and June 2018. The intensity of the band corresponding to a carbapenemase for each test was compared using ImageJ software. RESULTS:Of the 161 isolates tested, a carbapenemase was detected in 91 (60 OXA-48-like, 15 VIM, 9 KPC, 5 NDM, 1 IMP and 1 IMP?+?OXA-48); in the remaining 70, no carbapenemases were detected. For both tests, the results were 100% concordant with the results of the PCR-sequencing reference method. Two IMP producers were only detected by NG-Test CARBA 5 as IMP is not targeted by RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. The mean intensity of the OXA-48, VIM and NDM bands displayed by NG-Test CARBA 5 was 3 to 3.7 times higher than for RESIST-4 O.K.N.V., while the KPC band was on average 1.7 times more intense with RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. CONCLUSIONS:RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. and NG-Test CARBA 5 are two efficient assays for identification of the major carbapenemases. NG-Test CARBA 5 offers the advantage of detecting IMP, which remains rare in Western countries.

Project description:NG-Test CTX-M MULTI and NG-Test Carba 5 (NG Biotech) are two rapid in vitro immunochromatographic assays that are widely used for the detection of the most common extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and carbapenemases in Enterobacterales. ESBL and carbapenemases are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide and their rapid detection from positive blood cultures is crucial for early initiation of effective antimicrobial therapy in bloodstream infections (BSI) involving antibiotic-resistant organisms. In this study, we developed a rapid workflow for positive blood cultures for direct identification of Enterobacterales by MALDI-TOF mass-spectrometry, followed by detection of ESBL and carbapenemases using NG-Test CTX-M MULTI and NG-Test Carba 5 (NG Biotech). The workflow was evaluated using Enterobacterales isolates (n = 114), primarily Klebsiella species (n = 50) and Escherichia coli (n = 40). Compared to the standard testing approach in our institution using BD Phoenix, our new testing approach demonstrates 100% sensitivity and specificity for organism identification and detection of ESBL and carbapenemases. Implementation of a rapid workflow in diagnostic microbiology laboratories will enable more effective antimicrobial management of patients with BSI due to ESBL- and carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales. IMPORTANCE The incidence of bloodstream infections (BSI) with extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing and carbapenemase producing Enterobacterales (CPE) is increasing at an alarming rate, for which only limited therapeutic options remain available. Rapid identification of these bacteria along with their antibiotic resistance mechanisms in positive blood cultures with Gram-negative bacteria will allow for early initiation of effective therapy and limit the overuse of broad-spectrum antibiotics in BSI (1). In this study we evaluated a combined approach of testing positive blood cultures directly, using MALDI-TOF MS followed by rapid immunochromatographic tests, for the detection of ESBLs and CPEs. Our approach demonstrates 100% sensitivity and specificity for the identification of Enterobacterales and detection of ESBLs and CPEs in positive blood culture with a turnaround time (TAT) of ≤60 min compared to a TAT of 48 h required by conventional culture and susceptibility testing methods.
