We developed an Australian database for the identification ofAspergillus,Scedosporium, andFusariumspecies (n= 28) by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization−time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). In a challenge against 117 isolates, species identification significantly improved when the in-house-built database was combined with the Bruker Filamentous Fungi Library compared with that for the Bruker library alone (Aspergillus, 93% versus 69%;Fusarium, 84% versus 42%; andScedosporium, 94% versus 18%, respectively).
