Abstract

Detection of carbapenemases in Enterobacterales is crucial for patient treatment and infection control. Among others, combination disc tests (CDTs) with different inhibitors (e.g., EDTA) and variations of the carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) are recommended by EUCAST or the CLSI and are used by many laboratories as they are relatively inexpensive. In this study, we compare three commercially available CDTs, faropenem disc testing (FAR), and the zinc-supplemented CIM (zCIM) test for the detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE). The Rosco KPC/MBL and OXA-48 Confirm kit (ROS-CDT), the Liofilchem KPC&MBL&OXA-48 disc kit (LIO-CDT), Mastdiscs Combi Carba plus (MAST-CDT), FAR, and zCIM were challenged with 106 molecularly characterized CPE and 47 non-CPE isolates. The sensitivities/specificities were 86% (confidence interval [CI], 78 to 92%)/98% (CI, 89 to 100%) for MAST-CDT and ROS-CDT, 96% (CI, 91 to 99%)/87% (CI, 74 to 95%) for LIO-CDT, and 99% (CI, 95 to 100%)/81% (CI, 67 to 91%) for FAR compared to 98% (CI, 93 to 100%)/100% (CI, 92 to 100%) for zCIM. The CDTs showed great performance differences depending on the carbapenemase class, with MAST-CDT and LIO-CDT best detecting class B, ROS-CDT best detecting class A, and LIO-CDT best detecting class D carbapenemases. The overall performance of commercially available CDTs was good but varied greatly for different carbapenemases and between manufacturers, compared with FAR and zCIM, which performed well for all carbapenemase types. For reliable carbapenemase detection, CDTs should preferably not be used as the sole test but can be part of a diagnostic strategy when combined with other assays (e.g., CIM-based, immunochromatographic, or molecular tests).
