Utilizing machine learning and MALDI-TOF MS platform for rapid detection of ceftriaxone-resistant nontyphoidal Salmonella
ABSTRACT Ceftriaxone (CRO) is a first-line antibiotic for pediatric nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) infections, but rising resistance threatens public health. Conventional antimicrobial susceptibility testing remains time-consuming, delaying treatment. Although MALDI-TOF MS enables rapid microbial identification, it lack...
