GB/T 33682-2025 is the English-translated version of 基质辅助激光解吸电离飞行时间质谱鉴别微生物方法通则.
GB/T 33682-2025 is the Chinese national standard covering identifying a microorganism by its protein fingerprint rather than by culture — the sample preparation and the pre-treatment that differs from one strain to another, the matrix and the target plate, the instrument settings and the bacterial test standard used to calibrate them, the quality control, the comparison with the fingerprint library, and the interpretation criteria that decide whether the result is a species, a genus, or no identification. The 2025 edition adds the quality control clause and rewrites the interpretation criteria and the reporting. Issued on 30 May 2025, it has been in force since 1 September 2025, replacing GB/T 33682-2017.

Foreword
This document is in accordance with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Guidelines for standardization work Part 1: Structure and drafting rules for standardization documents" Drafting.
This document replaces GB/T 33682-2017 "General rules for identification of microorganisms by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry" and Compared with GB/T 33682-2017, in addition to structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.
— Added requirements for pre-treatment methods for different strains (see 8.2);
— Added instrument setting condition requirements (see 8.4.1);
— Added "quality control" requirements (see 8.6);
— Changed the interpretation criteria of “result interpretation” (see 8.8, 8.7 of the 2017 edition);
— Changed the reporting requirements for “Results Report” (Chapter 9, Chapter 9 of the 2017 edition).

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry General principles for methods of identification of microorganisms
1 Scope
This document specifies the general method for identification of microorganisms by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
This document applies to the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry identification of microbial species.
2 Normative references
GB/T 6682
GB 19489
3 Terms and definitions
The following terms and definitions apply to this document.
3.1
The isolated and purified single colony is directly applied to the target plate, and after drying, the matrix is added and mixed. The microbial soluble protein and the matrix form After forming co-crystals, mass spectrometry fingerprints of protein molecules with different mass-to-charge ratios were obtained through a vacuum time-of-flight tube.
4 Abbreviations
The following abbreviations apply to this document.
BTS. Bacteria Detection Standard Sample.
MALDI-TOFMS. matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
MALDI-TOF-TOFMS. matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry. MSP. main spectrum plot.
5 Principle
Common microorganisms are composed of special proteins that are different from other species, and therefore have unique protein fingerprints, which are determined by species.
It is determined by the genetic characteristics and is less affected by external environmental conditions.
Samples (from clinical samples such as sputum, blood, body fluids, swabs, and food, cosmetics, medicines, and the environment, etc.) are properly processed and cultured in solid After culturing and isolating a single colony on the matrix, the sample was directly spotted onto the target plate and placed into the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer.
Ionization is separated according to the mass/charge (m/z) ratio, and the collected data is compared with the microbial fingerprint library for identification.
