Abstract excerpt

Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (RFLP) of total DNA and rDNA regions was used for the epidemiological evaluation of 10 Enterobacter cloacae nosocomial isolates obtained from nine patients in our hospital. Five of these patients were hospitalized during overlapping periods, thus raising the question of cross-contamination. A single biochemical pattern and antibiotic susceptibility profile was...
