Decreased Sensitivity of Rapid Antigen Test Is Associated with a Lower Viral Load of Omicron than Delta SARS-CoV-2 Variant
International audienceLarge-scale screening for SARS-CoV-2 infection is an important tool for epidemic prevention and control. The appearance of new variants associated with specific mutations can call into question the effectiveness of rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) deployed massively at national and international levels. We compared the clinical and virological characteristics of individuals infected by Delta or Omicron variants to assess which factors were associated with a reduced performance of RDT. A commercially available RDT as well as the evaluation of the viral load (VL) and the detection of replicate intermediates (RIs) were carried out retrospectively on positive SARS-CoV-2 nasopharyngeal specimens from health care workers of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital infected by the Delta or Omicron variant between July 2021 and January 2022. Of the 205 samples analyzed (104 from individuals infected with Delta and 101 with Omicron), 176 were analyzed by RDT and 200 by RT-PCR for VL and RIs. The sensitivity of the TDR for Omicron was significantly lower than that observed for Delta (53.8% versus 74.7%, respectively, P < 0.01). Moreover, the Delta VL was significantly higher than that measured for Omicron (median Ct 21.2 versus 24.1, respectively, P < 0.01) and associated with the positivity of the RDT in multivariate analysis. We demonstrate a lower RDT sensitivity associated with a lower VL at the time of diagnosis on Omicron-infected individuals in comparison to those infected with the Delta variant. This RDT lower sensitivity should be taken into account in the large-scale screening strategy and in particular in case of strong suspicion of infection where testing should be repeated. IMPORTANCE Previous reports have shown a variability in the diagnostic performance of RDTs. In the era of SARS-CoV-2 variants and the use of RDT, mutation associated with these variants could affect the test performance. We evaluate the sensitivity of the RDT Panbio COVID-19 Ag (Abbott) with two variants of concern (VOC), the Delta and Omicron variants. In order to investigate whether clinical characteristics or virological characteristics can affect this sensitivity, we collected clinical information and performed a specific RT-PCR that detected the RIs as a marker of the viral replication and viral cycle stage. Our results showed that Omicron was less detected than the Delta variant. A lower viral load of Omicron variant in comparison to Delta variant explained this decreased sensitivity, even if they are at the same stage of the disease and the viral cycle and should be taken into account with the use of RDT as diagnostic tool
Evaluation of ceftolozane-tazobactam susceptibility on a French nationwide collection of Enterobacterales
International audienceObjectives: Ceftolozane-tazobactam (C/T) proved its efficacy for the treatment of infections caused by non-carbapenemase producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacterales. Here, we aimed to provide susceptibility data on large series of Enterobacterales since the revision of EUCAST categorization breakpoints in 2020.Methods: First, C/T susceptibility was determined on characterized Enterobacterales resistant to 3rd generation cephalosporins (3GC) (ESBL production or different levels of AmpC overexpression) (n=213) and carbapenem resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) (n=259) including 170 carbapenemase producers (CPE). Then, 1,632 consecutive clinical Enterobacterales responsible for infection were prospectively collected in 23 French hospitals. C/T susceptibility was determined by Etest® (biomérieux) and broth microdilution (BMD) (Sensititre™, Thermo Scientific) to perform method comparison.Results: Within the collection isolates, 88% of 3GC resistant strains were susceptible to C/T, with important variation depending on the resistance mechanism: 93% vs 13% susceptibility for CTX-M and SHV-ESBL producers, respectively. Only 20% of the CRE were susceptible to C/T. Among CPE, 80 % of OXA-48-like producers were susceptible to C/T, whereas all metallo-β-lactamase producers were resistant. The prospective study revealed that 95.6% of clinical isolates were susceptible to C/T. Method comparison performed on these 1,632 clinical isolates demonstrated 99 % of categorization agreement between MIC to C/T determined by Etest® compared to BMD (reference) and only 74% of essential agreement.Conclusion: Overall, C/T showed good activity against wild-type Enterobacterales, AmpC producers and ESBL-producing E. coli but is less active against ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae and CRE. Etest® led to an underestimation of the MICs in comparison to BMD
