Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic resistance phenotypes, plasmid content and ability of conjugal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes of 35 multi-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were examined. The strains were isolated in 12 Greek hospitals and the majority of them (80%) belonged to serotype 0:12. The isola...
