Classification of GBS isolates based on ribosomal subunit protein (rsp) based MALDI-TOF MS analysis. (a) Assignment of 170 GBS isolates to rsp-profiles already contained in the reference database. Four isolates were assigned no ID. (b) Assignment of 29 GBS isolates to novel rsp (nrsp)-profiles, which were not yet incorporated into our reference database. (*) Two isolates were initially assigned a nrsp-profile but upon visual inspection clearly assignable to rsp-profiles 4 and 5. (c) Assignment to known rsp-profiles of 44 GBS isolates for which rsp L19 was not detected in the mass spectrum. Colour coding indicates isolation source of GBS strains (green: human; blue: fish; brown: pig).
